Shut The Box, Living room game

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Shut The Box, Living room gameThis project was inspired by lumberjock duckmilks project seen here,A simple dice game called shut the box, Made with three species, Walnut and Ash for the base and the superstructure and number pegs from Oak. Once again I like to show off the end grains.Made from 51 pieces of wood, 60 dowels, some threaded rod, washers and nuts.
The middle pieces cross halve jointed and the ends doweled. The base laminated with dowels and simply glued and nailed to the superstructure. The numbers traced in pencil from a plastic stencil then hand burnt engraved in.Finished with Danish oil and signature hot branded on the underneath.
Below some pics of the construction stage.
Thanks for reading.Kind Regards
Anthony

Dining Table

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Dining TableJust finished my dining table. Solid mahogany. The legs are glued mahogany from 50+ year old pallets from Central America (mostly)—the top & bottom boards, of the pallets, were made from mahogany with oak stringers. There are no metal fasteners – the joinery is mortise & tenon with wedged dowels. The reason the legs and apron are laying in two pieces is because I made them 4” too narrow. Someone said you can tell good work by how well the mistakes are repaired – there are no pefect pieces – if they don't have repairs, they likely should have. I was very happy with the repaired apron width.
