Hello Group,
After my heart attack forced retirement 2 1/2 years ago I got more seriously into woodworking. Later I decided to specialize by making little occasional boxes. I like to play with different woods: ash, oak, utili, yew, wenge, chestnut, black walnut, sycamore, purpleheart. I design on the fly and don't really plan any box, which means that one step forward two steps back isn't uncommon. I have come to prefer oil finishes. I line the interiors with velvet or suede. I have also included a pic of my little shop inside a steel shed. I have found that after the first inch or so accumulates, the sawdust doesn't get any more noticeable!
