My wife and I made a bed out of reclaimed wood (massaranduba) from our deck. Massaranduba is similar to ipe. It's finished with danish oil. I talked my Grandson into sanding for a while. We're going to make some matching nightstands next.

So I managed to do it 5 nights in a row. I may actually go for 7 depending on how work goes tomorrow and the day goes Sunday. But that is for tomorrow.Today's offering is fire, well a fire lighter at least These are the Survival Pens from WC, Ferro Rod and Striker (clip) and a Grass Breaker which can also make a decent self defense item in a pinch. Again used up some smaller bits and made the laminates. Ambrosia Maple with Padauk and Walnut wit Padauk.Thanks for looking. I have a crazy time at work coming up and I am going to challenge myself to get in the shop one night a week at the minimum. Maybe I'll start a blog about it and not waste the space on the project page, we'll see.CtL

I made a bait that has a rotating tail and such a cool sound. It's called a whopper plopper. After a fashion I got it to work. It's made of white pine. Everything is hand made except the hooks.A great video of it that shows the complete build and in action in the water… such a cool sound. Click the picture below.
