Four cutting boards in process for Open Studios. Last year I sold all of my cutting boards, so hoping they sell out again.

Plus some birdhouses, chairs, benches and coffee tables. A few done, but still a lot to finish.

Making progress on the live edge coffee table. Done with the flattening, put some blue epoxy resin in the cracks and sanded the top. Next step is to build the base, assemble, stain and finish the top.

I hope to finish in the next week or two, depending on the weather. My workshop is my driveway which is in full sun after noon. It's too hot for me if it's 90+ degrees.
