Cabinet on Salt of the Earth Carpentry

Armor of God Podium

Fri, 26 Nov 2021 22:18:38 -0500

This was a fun build. It has everything built into this. The podium is made from spalted pecan and cherry. Behind the panels is a 1/2" thick balistic hardend steel. It is wired for network as well as power directly in the podium. I built in a hide-a-way area for all the wires and power which is easily accessible. I also have a false wall built in for when you are exersising your 2nd amendment rights. Also has plenty of storage. The cross on the front is proud of the panel by about 1/4 inch, and the spalted wood in the front panel was selected to give the cross to seem to be halo’d by the Light from the Son above. Very fun build.

Pecan Trunk with a secret!

Thu, 10 Oct 2019 23:27:47 -0500

This spalted trunk has a secret. Inside it has 2 separate areas with small passage way through to them. If you look at the outside, you will find a small entry portal. This trunk is actually a litter box and feeding area for our cat. It works perfectly! No smell, and no mess. The cat enters on the far side, eats food and then passes to through the second area in there where his litter box is. The entire box is made from pecan and has raised panels of spalted pecan.

Dresser Restore

Sat, 10 Aug 2019 22:06:25 -0500

I was asked to restore a dresser for a customer. The dresser was painted and the top had a venear that was pealing off. I found some nice 4/4 oak and built a new top for it. I also stripped all the varnish and paint off it, and found some stunning rays and flecks. Sanded and refinished the wood and put new hardware on.
