Customer Photo Gallery
Here are some pictures of finished stocks sent in by some of my customers. Some are fit and finished by professionals, but more often they are first time efforts by folks that want to take a shot at it themselves.
I always enjoy seeing these, and often wonder what becomes of the wood I send out.
There are pictures of customer projects throughout this website.
I will update this as suitable pictures come in, but I am the first to admit that keeping this website up to date is not my priority, sawdust comes first!
