White display cabinet and storage

Here are some pictures of an unusual piece of furniture that I've just completed. The client, Mrs P, said that "Jim took my idea and improved upon it". She felt that this made purchasing a piece of furniture a more interesting process. 

I found it interesting to work with the material (MDF, sprayed to a matte white finish) as I normally only work in solid timbers. I am pleased with the unique contemporary design, which has received a lot of positive feedback - both in the workshop and once in situ.

 

Waney-edged mirror

I made this English oak framed mirror recently for a client, and particularly like the area of poppy oak in the top left. Standing at 2 metres high, and over half a metre in width, it is the largest mirror I've created of this style.

Mirror including stand: £250.

English oak shelving

Here are some brown oak shelves with through tenons that have been pegged.

The brown oak was created by fungal infection in the tree, giving lovely character to the timber. 

New chainsaw!

Using the new chainsaw for the first time, milling some absolutely lovely ash.

We thought the olive figuring looked like a fish. Do you see anything?

Both the olive ash is created by a fungal infection in the trees. It gives some lovely character to the timber.
