Been a while since I’ve been in the shop. Was able to get back to some wood signs over the weekend. Here is one. Sapele wood shaped into the crest of the University of Michigan.

It’s fun getting out of your comfort zone and trying new things. Made this chess board for a wedding gift. All the chess pieces are custom as well. From the complementary wood splines to the bride/groom engravings on the king/queen pieces, little details go a long way.

The custom chess pieces have a very modern look to them. After trying this out, I can confidently say version 2.0 is in the works.

Maple and walnut are the wood species. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣

These boards give me an opportunity to experiment with different colors and designs. With the bigger epoxy pours, the colors start to really take shape. It allows you to really see what the color has to offer.

Ever wonder where your beef or pork came from? Wonder no more.

The biggest butcher block I’ve made to date. This American board measures 24”x18”. At almost 2” thick, there is no BBQ brisket this board can’t handle.

The green goblin board is complete!

I was skeptical of the wood with the green resin the entire time until the finish was applied. Very happy with the result. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣

What do you think of the matte white??

Swamp mahogany with a matte white epoxy.
This wood is very difficult to find a complimentary epoxy color. I’ve always done black. But I think the white works well.

First epoxy serving tray complete. Have many more in the works.

I’ve been sitting on some Oak cookies for while. The cookies had some drying out to do. Moisture levels were finally right so it was time to get them shaped.

Swamp mahogany rounds embedded in a matte white epoxy.

It took me some time to find the right color epoxy to use for this wood. When swamp mahogany is oiled it become a very rich dark red color. With this wood color, it really limits the contrasting color you can use.

This is my second time using this form from . I couldn’t recommend it enough. The reason why I ditched my old forms was because of how they were constructed.

Many of the forms out there have slanted rails. The reason for the slanted rails is so the finished piece can just slide out. However that means you will need to use extra epoxy to fill the void the slanted rails create. This excess epoxy is cut off to square the sides. BIG WASTE!

This form has build in seals and all rails are parallel with surface. No waste!

The padauk and maple wood combo is my favorite. I got to spend a lot of time with this wood combo. Takes a good deal of time at the drum sander to get the strips down to an exact thickness. But the time was worth it. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
