Description I usually spend the other half of my time woodworking when I'm not painting. That is why I can usually go a year or two without painting because I'm making something out of wood. I made my own drawing table and chair. It helps me to create better. I made a nice chess table to go with my pewter chess pieces. I love to play chess but haven't done it in a long time.

Thank you so much, I just love the beauty of wood. I always try to showcase it's natural beauty rather than making something that they are not

That's really cool... I like it when you can still see the shape of the actual natural wood. Awesome!

Jonsama In reply to AndreaTamme [2007-05-30 14:51:00 +0000 UTC]

Long time no read...thanks for the comment. Hope you are doing well The legs of the tables are made of diamond willow. They are called that because they sort of look like diamond shapes in the wood. A lot of people...well I mean the people that I've seen use diamond willow like to take the bark out of the diamonds but I think it looks better with it in there.

kheradruakh [2007-03-15 15:02:17 +0000 UTC]

Wow, thats wonderful I love the legs on the chess table, and the corners of the table that jut out make it a much more interesting piece. As a keen chess player its nice to see someone putting as much effort into the board as the pieces, kudos!

Hey, thanks, I was looking at your work. It's all very good and creative! That's what really interest me about woodworking. The uniqueness of different kinds of wood. Colours and grain. I try to keep as much beauty of the wood as possible.
