Walking Wounded: Writer's Block




I designed and made this writing desk for a friend of mine. Threaded Pipe and Poplar. I inlaid cork on the right side and top corner to act as inspiration pinup and coaster. Then, I put a pencil tray in the top- just like in school. I like the color blocking.

Walking Wounded: Waxwear Chair



I waxed a Vietnam Era Duffel Bag with Paraffin and Bees Wax, then upholstered a chair that I restored in it.
