Laser Engraved 3D Christmas Ornament:
 |
| The first project we did as a class project was design and produce 50 pieces of this 3 layered lamented wooden Christmas Ornament. The process included Bandsaws, Jointers, Plainers, sanders, many layers of varnish, and of course the programming and implementation of the Laser Engraver. |
Guitar Stands and Stringed Instruments:
 |
| We also put into production several Guitar stands using various types of wood, and several types of joints including Dowel Joints and Mortise and Tenon. |
 |
| We also designed two different simple stringed instruments for autism spectrum students in our community. One involved a boxed body (one shown in previous photo) the other involved turning bowls on a lathe with a lip; and with the use of zither pins stringing the bowl for a one handed stringed simple instrument. |
Tambourine Repair:
 |
| After building the Bodhrán I learned how to use goatskin and was able to repair this Pentecostal tambourine (a Tambourine with a head) that had torn during my move to Eastern Kentucky. |
 |
| Although the seem is visible, after the goatskin patch was added , the head tightened right back up as if it had never been torn and plays perfectly! |
