Woodworking

Making things mostly out of wood.

I occasionally do handyman work along with other physical products. If you'd like to commission a custom build, I can help you with that.

Sewing Machine Box for a sewing machine, made out of parts from the original sewing machine table. This old sewing machine was built into a desk. But the desk was too big to haul around, and my parents were going to get rid of the whole thing! What to do? So I made this box jointed box out of some salvaged pieces of the desk to support the sewing machine. Not the greatest bit of carpentry, but it does the job.

Reliquary Dust Cover Trim Detail. There are no fasteners holding the trim together, it's all just pre-load designed in. There is also a bunch of LED strips built in, but the church decided against using them because they might create light which would harm the relic.
