Really like your woodwork! Are you using a torch for the burn spots? I've been thinking of adding burn marks to my wood mounted prints.

Looks good ATP. Did you make the stools or modify existing ones? Actually making stools would be a pain in the butt. When making a table I found out that you can NEVER get all 4 legs the same length no matter how carefully you measure. That's why whoever invented the three-legged stool was a genius, it's always stable (plus, you can't tip it backwards when you've had to much to drink  )

Hi Mike,
I started with those "naked wood stool kits" and just cut it down to the size I wanted,
cheaper then just buying wood for a chair also, sand,stain & finish, cut and stain bamboo inlay
more work went into making the cushion.
A cheap & simple way to make your own Bar Stools.

Made some more stuff, I sold a few sets of these at BambooBens Garage sale & I liked them so much I made a set for my House.
I did four individual shelves that I could stagger on the wall.

Made a custom frame for Doug Horne's "Diablo Tiki" print.
I wanted to go the more traditional Tiki style, so I carved a basic tapa pattern into the wood.
