This stuff is cool, I think.... besides, yall probably get tired of me posting guitar pictures.


Cedar Chest I built for Ashley





Picture Frame for this cartoon of Ashely and I. By the way, I'd rather take a kick in the nads than to build another picture or painting frame.


Present for my mother.


I built the guitar and the chair.


Jewelry box for Miss Ashley. When finished, it had an inlayed mirror, gold knobs, and red felt lining.





Jewelry box for a friend in Kentucky



I built a friendship with this black bear for the measly cost of a Twinkee



Halter rack for my niece. ( this was before I had tools)


This bowie knife


1911 grips


This workshop


This guitar and strap


This pistol holster for my Mark II

cool i like the grips on the 1911. i've got stag grips on one of my dad's 1911's.

i've always liked things that were handmade in america rather than a assembly line in china

Here's a couple of my homemade 8-Track tapes. I have many more that I've made, but these are just a couple that I have pics of. The car is my '79 Coupe DeVille (and it looks like I need some gas!):

The tech bench I made last weekend. Not a thing of beauty, but I know where I'm hiding when the next earthquake hits.

Drew up a plan for radial engine and this was the result

Bet you've never seen any bikes like that before!

My new favorite passion:




Building molds for full carbon guitars now.

Love the sound of the 4" deep one so, starting with that format.
