Beach Driftwood Pen

While on vacation at the beach recently, I picked up a small piece of driftwood and made an ink pen out of it.  I love making a project out of wood that has a story behind it.  This is one of those projects.

Did you know?  Collecting driftwood can be prohibited in some areas, so make sure you check the rules in your area before collecting any driftwood.

State of Georgia Decorative Wall Hanging

I made this decorative Georgia wall hanging as a video response to the California one made by Steve Ramsey of Woodworking for Mere Mortals.  It's an end-grain topography of Georgia made from southern yellow pine.  To see Steve's original video along with all the video responses, click here!

My daughter Evelyn helped me make this video of our new Clown Candy Dispenser.  It's for a contest put on by Underground Woodworking and WorkshopAddict.com .  Thanks to Underground Woodworking for this neat idea for a woodworking project for kids.
