I'm a general woodworker and have been for many years. I really like making different things. I've turned pens and bud vases, made a futon, a couple beds, lamps, various cabinets, bookshelfs, a couple of wooden gear clocks and made all our kitchen cabinets. I'm just getting into scroll work. I've done some ornaments but not much really.
