Too Many Hobbies
« on: March 30, 2009, 03:53:20 PM »
As requested by our revered administrator here are a few pics of some of my stuff.

I tend to flit from project to project, these were when I was in my 'I need some decent saws' mode.

Here are some more.....


Then there are the file handles, a bit OTT but nice to use.

This is the third set of centre hole dividers I have made.
My 'too many hobbies', more of my toolmaking and descriptions of some of them under construction can be seen on my website here. in the 'workshop' and 'Hobbies' pages.

Wonderful work Mark.

Were you taught all this, or did it just appear thru pure artistry?

It doesn't really matter, another artisan in our midst.
