Does Dremeling count? I just picked up a Woodcarving Dremel Kit last spring, and am "warming up" with practice pieces.

Pumpkins are fun!!

I also interesting in woodworking and metal working. Recently bought cool tool for my work -heat gun. I read some info about it on protoolsadviser Seekone heat gun has LCD screen for easy temperature readings.

 

[I wood]

Yes, a little.

This is one of my favorite projects. A table with only one flat surface. Carved with a chainsaw, angle grinder and sandpaper. Birdeye maple veneer on top and finished with a tung oil/polyurethane blend

Ever make something from Madrone wood ?

Not Madrone burls, just the wood from the tree trunk or branches.

Bath vanity I built for my home last year from walnut i harvested in 1999. The top was supposed to be black soapstone but due to an impending japanese exchange student visit was made quickly from walnut as well. Temporary but holding up well and might be left as is.

I don't have any pics of the more detailed ones I've dremeled, for whatever reason, but here's one I did for my GF to bring to work. I was flattered when it got stolen right away.

I thought I'd bump this thread versus starting a new one. I hope that's ok @TheForgotten .
Here's a Cherry/Maple jelly cabinet I made. I use it mostly for Tinctures.

Here's a Sumac pencil cup I turned. I also turned the Mulberry pen inside the cup.

Here's another project I do every fall for gifts. I hand carve these with a rotary grinder.
I thought I'd rough out some Black Cherry pipes. It will be a few days before I finish any.

These are shaping guides I turned on my lathe. These will help me with the next step of shaping the pipes to final dimensions. This needs to be done prior to carving them.

Here are a few finished pipes. I re-sand the inside of the bowls and they are ready to gift away.

that´s some really nice woodwork! How long would you say these pipes take you from start to finish?
I once watched a program about pipe making on TV. They showed a professional and all the steps and so on. I´ve been wanting to make one ever since sadly I don´t have the necessary tools at home.

Thanks @Cuddles. They take about 3 hours to make one from start to finish. Hand sanding takes up most of that time. But, they are fun to make and folks really appreciate them as a gift.

Very nice wood and work TimJ, I am new here but do wood work of all kinds. Also into canna tincture making but don't want to go offtopic.

Thanks @mike-or-ozzy and welcome to ICMAG. I'd love to see some of your woodworking. I'm just getting my feet wet here on ICMAG too. I've been a member for a long time. But, I have only just started posting here. I'm sure if you use the search feature you'll be able to find a tincture thread to add your knowledge too and or learn from.

love woodworking, and really enjoy seeing others work. most of what i do is hand carving pipes from walnut and deer antlers i am gifted, plus i make my own arrows for bowhunting. got the old tools i need to make Native American style self-bows, looking for straight osage staves (rare) or hickory. twisted osage is everywhere...

Here is a wood spirit and a wood wizard I carved.

They sound like some interesting pipes @armedoldhippy.

You guys have a pair of skillful hands, pay my respects.

Intarsia Dragonfly and Pelican.

I wanted to try wood burning also, this is black walnut. It is the serenity prayer. I also wanted a challenge, so did this Mountain lion in Padauk. I'd never suggest using 3/4" Padauk to scroll saw and image like this. It is a dense wood that dulls blades quickly due to the silica content of the wood.

The playing card covers my signature.

i also love to work with wood, when i was young i made an education as a cabinetmaker. after almost 30 years i decided to use my old horsestable as a workshop and bought some almost antique machinery for very small money and startet my old and almost forgotten profession again. here is one of my last projects, a workbench for a friend of mine, made out of maple and chestnut, wich got roaked with samiac spirit after finishing, to change the color of the chestnut-wood:
