pairoducks: Spalted Maple and Mahogany Shelving

http://pairoducks.blogspot.com/2015/04/spalted-maple-and-mahogany-shelving.html

Sunday, April 26, 2015. Spalted Maple and Mahogany Shelving. With the waste material from the counter top, I made this shelving. Spalted Big Leaf Maple from Ben and Suzy's wood shed. The Maple is ripped into 2" strips and laminated together. I made the second shelf down out of Mahogany because I was short on the maple material. The shelves stair step down suspended by a 3/4" x 7/8" stick of maple, mortised into place. The suspended shelves are lightweight and sturdy. Labels: Big Leaf Maple.

pairoducks: Collapsible Truck Rack Tent Frame

http://pairoducks.blogspot.com/2015/03/collapsible-truck-rack-tent.html

Wednesday, March 4, 2015. Collapsible Truck Rack Tent Frame. Timmy came up with an idea to turn his truck rack into a tent frame. I thought it was brilliant and with some 1 and 1/4" thick square tubing we went out to the metal shop. We sleeved the metal on to the existing truck rack tubing which will bolt on to the rack. We welded tabs onto the ridge and drilled holes that will allow for bolts to tie together the rafters. Throw a tarp over it and you got a house, or break it down. Labels: truck rack tent.

pairoducks: Western Hemlock Shard Sculpture

http://pairoducks.blogspot.com/2015/03/spruce-shard-sculpture.html

Sunday, March 22, 2015. Western Hemlock Shard Sculpture. While hiking in the Skokomish river valley this winter I came across this shard of what I believe is a very old Western Hemlock tree. I've had it piled up with some other found pieces of wood and I finally got around to carving it. I believe it formed from the impact when the tree fell or if it was struck by another falling tree. Dimensions: 19" x 8" x 6". Western Hemlock wood sculpture. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Constructing A Carving Adz.

pairoducks: Monkey Bar Ladder

http://pairoducks.blogspot.com/2015/04/monkey-bar-ladder.html

Wednesday, April 1, 2015. An upside-down stair case? Last night I went out to the forge and bent this flat stock around a 1/2" black iron pipe. I had some extra pipe from the propane line on the original trailer, so I decided to give it a try. The pipe flexes a little bit, which adds some spring to your swing. Labels: 1/2 black iron pipe.

Sunday, November 18, 2012. Beer Bottle Insulated Floor. I have had a little bit of time off of work, so Timmy and I took Py on his first camping/hiking adventure. We headed out to visit a friend in the Hoh Rainforest right next to Ruby Beach. Sterling's Homestead is 7 years in the making and he had some great projects going on. There was in incredible amount of old growth cedar on the property. Sterling did some work for a neighbor and received this old growth cedar driftwood log in payment. He p...Const...

pairoducks: Live Edge Douglas Fir Light Shelves

http://pairoducks.blogspot.com/2015/02/live-edge-douglas-fir-light-shelf.html

Thursday, February 26, 2015. Live Edge Douglas Fir Light Shelves. I've been working on light design with LED lights and simple paper diffusers. These LED strip lights are a great accent for an affordable price and they are very efficient. They illuminate the ceiling colors and produce a warm light. The brackets holding the shelves are forged from old rototiller tine brackets I found on the Hoh Hum Ranch near Ruby Beach on the Olympic Peninsula. View from the loft. Labels: above cabinet led light.
