Travail du bois

[Dad72]

Hello,

As some know I work with wood. I had to stop because I didn’t have a workshop at my disposal and it lasted for many years.
I started carpentry around 14 years old and did a 3 year training in cabinetmaking In the largest boarding school in France (Château des Vaux) from 15 to 18 years old. I am now 44 years old.

I have restored a house completely since then of A à Z. It’s been 12 years now and I managed to redevelop a small workshop of 25 m² (Still small for my taste, but we do with what we have)

Carpentry is my first passion, then comes programming.

Here are some little things I did.
I don’t have a photo of my workshop yet. But as soon as I have one I will present it. I have to tidy up the bazaars first.

Do you know the construction kit “Kapla”? It’s amazing to play with these “pixels of wood” There are a lot of pictures you can find in the net from easy to complex buildings. Pure fun for kids and kids never going old…

Yes, I know, I also have a box of Kapla in Chestnut wood that I made for my daughter.

@Dad72 : My favorite - the puzzle box

Like you, my son-in-law likes carpentry. I have a chess board and a cheese board from him. He has a two car garage - which his cars never go inside. Just filled with saws and planers and routers.

Your children and grand children will enjoy them

Say Safe, gryff

Thanks Gryff.

Yes the cat, he’s a Siamese. People had thrown it in a trash can on the highway. We saved him, healed him, and he’s healthy now.
