That’s going to crack some skulls!Isnt as nice as some of y'all's stuff but this is a baton I made for a friend of mine that's a deputy up north. Ca glue and a clay bar make a pretty finish.
I told him if he does make sure his body cam is on for meThat’s going to crack some skulls!
Wow, that’s gorgeous!When my GF's father retired from farming 20 yrs ago he bought a sawmill and began milling trees from his properties. He passed away last year and now the property belongs to his youngest son/grandson.
We visited her mom's today and I took a few photos of the shop and barns. The sawmill was sold but the woodshop is still there as well as a nice supply of roughcut maple, oak, and cherry boards.
I am hoping to get permission to acquire/buy some of it eventually. It must be worth a fortune at today's hardwood prices.
He was indeed a very talented boilermaker/farmer/woodworker.
Here's some eye candy for you woodworkers:

He made the table, chairs, cabinets/trim, and flooring for his house all automotive urethane coated.
I love wood, I wish I could afford such a hobby.

Nice! Is it made of a wood that they can use in the yard After the wedding?My son s getting married next month. A couple of months ago, we were talking over the wedding plans with him. He mentioned that they were looking at renting an arbor for the ceremony, but it seemed like too much money for something that wasn't quite what they wanted. My son said he wanted to build one, but he doesn't have the time with all of the overtime he is getting and he would have to come to my house to build it.
I asked if he minded if I helped out. He said he would appreciate it and we talked design. There are a couple of details to finish, then staining: View attachment 216646
