Workstation

I went by TKs Shop this afternoon to check out a workstation that we just finished as part of a new commision.  Its been a really fun project from the start, and a nice opportunity to work with marine ply (I usually work with A/C ply)  and also to try out a new rounded corner mirror shape.  There is something so satisfying about making truly functional objects.  I also love the big loopy grain of fir plywood – and the way that it takes on a subtle relief when sanded.  It reminds me a lot of the home craftsman ethic that was so predominant in our southern California garage-workshops when I was growing up.
