Built this 'Big Man' board (8'7"L x 23"W@C x 3"T) for a friend who is somewhat 'big'. I used most of the 8.9 US Blanks blank for flotation. Bottom laminated with 6oz + a 6oz tail patch + 4oz nose patch. Deck laminated with two full 6oz layers + a 2/3 4oz layer. Epoxy lam.

So I have this tiny meager kitchen space.
Thus....
Egads!!!!!6!!!
So I tore it off. Thus...
Built a new one from another one that I tore outa some Eagle chick's house...on my backporch. Thus....
Like the sawhorses? Yeah, me, too.
Anyway....Here's the sink.
And what kinda project would it be unless we could admire the desired and highly anticipated(?) result?
There ya go. It's still a sucky kitchen(in my estimation), but it DOES look nicer. Dig the undermount sink. I've installed hundreds of them, but this is the 1st one I get to use. Yeah, I know the faucet doesn't "match", Geez. It was free.
Cheers.

Good work everyone. I'm impressed with the diversity of projects. I didn't build the unique EMP Museum in Seattle, but I worked on some projects here. Formerly called the "Experience (after Jimi Hendrix) Music Project and Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame". Founded by Microsoft's Paul Allen and designed by Frank Gehry.Here at the Seattle Opera Scene Shop, we artists used sawz-alls, mainly, to sculpt fantastic trees out of bead foam over a steel and ply substrate for the Avatar exhibit at the EMP. Notice the tiny clay model in the foreground.After details and textures are applied, the trees were split in half and polyshielded with a thick, hot molten plastic for rigidity and paint application. They are hollow, and bolt together to mask existing square concrete columns in the museum.Final textures and paint was applied at this "end-of-build" gathering. The Avatar exhibit opened at the Seattle Center's EMP Museum this spring.Hey Reilly, I'll help you base that Victorian gingerbread house upthread if you trim-HA

Cap'n, did you gain about two feet of counter space?
just a thought.
If you take down the wallpaper and paint that area, plus> lose the grandma curtains..I think it would complement your smooth upgrade....
take it or leave it.....or.. you can tell me to..stfu and decorate my own damn house..(-;
edit...I just noticed Reilly mentioned the wall paper too...ha.

Nita & Reilly...I still have enough material to run full height back splash in there...Just cover it right up. I gained a foot & a half. I'll probably build a windowsill, too.

Copper flat lock side wall panels 16"x118" all handmade....Not too many of these in the states, only one locally....
Panel Pattern taken from internet and heavily modified for larger wall panels.
Then we handmade onsite and installed.
Owner Wanted them turned green on study.
Very interesting project. Fun application and it turned out beautiful...I've never done them before for sidewall and will more then likely never do one again....

Built 3 chairs today with my cousin-in-law, Tim Stelling. Tim was good friends with Tobin Sorenson, and hung with the Poway Mountain Boys, but hasn't climbed for several years (aside from one occasion when I cajoled him to spending a few days in Leavenworth with me). Fantastic guy who married my cousin, Deanna.

Hey, jopay. . . when you're done there, I've got some hackin' and whackin' I'd be happy to share with you, up near the Canadian border!
Well that is tempting being that I've never been to Canada!
