Pics of your milled products

A chair and bench i made recently.

 

 

Nicely done! Liking all the joins you've done there

Well if it works then in works!! Sounds a good way of doing things....

 

But I wouldn't have the patience myself

 

It's what you're used to I guess. I get on much better with sharp hand tools rather than power tools.

Had a lot of half finished type projects kicking around and so have focused and started to finish some of them.... I find Summer is the best season for selling and getting your name out there. Nothing new design wise but some cracking wood - elm (from Big J on here - if you want elm PM him!) and some walnut milled a couple of years ago.

 

 

Done a vid on sanding and making one of these tables which I'll edit and put up soon.... have made a few more things as well which I'll also take some pics of.

Some cracking figured wood there, what do you finish them with,Danish oil ,French polish or do you just wax them ?

I milled it but didn't build it, credit to the man that did though

Very tidy - something I'd like to try myself in the future.

Inside stuff danish oil or walnut oil - both cheap, easy to apply, no skin to scratch... I don't tend to use much wax anymore but you can wax over both these oils if someone requested it....

Solid sweet chestnut bench - there was shake through this so no good for planking. A lot of sanding involved but was sold for £650-00. Made using the mini mill. Only 4 cuts used to make the whole thing....

 

That is lovely, worth every penny:thumbup1:

couple of benches i made last year by the river in our field

Chestnut was used for raised beds at my dads allotment and the Oak is still drying but I think we might use it to make a coffee table.
