Building a nice solid wood piece of furniture is nice, but adding to texture to it really brings it to life and gives it character. And I have been wanting to try a dramatic deep carve on a piece for a while and this was the perfect opportunity.

Making a Chair | With Wedged Through Tenons & AWESOME Texture
I am hosting Saburrtooth’s We Make Sawdust Challenge again and this time the challenge was to build “Something You Can Sit On”. And since I can’t win I decided to completely challenge myself to try and bunch of new things on my project….. wedged through tenon chair legs and dramatic texture!
The AWESOME way to Power Carve Spoons!
I recently got a bandsaw and I knew the first project I wanted to do to test it out… make spoons!!!
I only ever made one other spoon before… cut it out with a jig saw and then carved it using a carving tool. And while that spoon turned out AWESOME, it took forever to complete. So this time we are going to cut the rough shape out with the bandsaw and then test out several of my carving burrs and see which we like best for making spoons!
How I Power Carved A Bread Bowl
I have been doing a lot of power carving lately, mostly adding texture to some of the pieces I create. But today I am going to switch it up. You see, I have always wanted a bread bowl so I am going to show you how I completely carved a bread bowl… no lathe required, no special skills! Just a few of my Saburrtooth burrs!
