Making a Jewellery box
Here is the final film of the creation of my jewellery box. A lot of time and effort put into this piece of work. I loved working with the Yew wood which was given to me by Hans from handsonfurniture.ie in Ardgroom. The top is walnut burl that I bought in Cork and thanks to Marc Jeisy of bearajoinery.com, for the use of his workshop.
Kumiko Lamps the first set
Japanese lantern known as Kumiko lamps.
I designed and made these intricate pieces out off Walnut and Beech wood.
I made these whilst still studying at ATU in Letterfrack, where I got my BSC in Furniture design and fabrication with distinction.

Bench with Danish Cord
A client saw my Danish Cord bench which is permanently installed in the 8 Cows Gallery in Allihies and asked if I could reproduce it for their new house.

Restore a Mandolin
An old mandolin made by famous Luthier @sobellguitars was bought in 1985 and heavily used since.
It was brought to me by a local musician to fix, and now it will be able to live on once again!

Knife handle one off job
Old vs new, a very sharp knife which was a family memento for its owner.
Of course the knife had to have a certain value for its owner to want it renovated, I enjoyed fixing this knife with a new handle which will give it another lease of life for it’s owner.

Kumiko Lights mkII
My second go at Kumiko lamps and fair to say a bit more tricky then the first.
Made from Irish Oak, Ash, Walnut, and small bits of Maple!
These bed side lamps give off a wonderful glow.

Design and build my own chair
I decided to design and build my own chair. I wanted to get back to the computer to do the design with a CAD program and then move to the physical and make the chair following the plan from the program.
