Miniature Adirondack Chair for my sister's fairy gardens

A cedar planter I built 15 years ago still going strong.

Tongue and Groove Western Red Cedar KD and fun to install!

How 'bout a trellis made with 8 x 8 Port Orford Cedar Posts and 6 x 8 beams

Curvy

This was a fun project

Barrel Vault Framing

A two story addition I built for my father after work a couple years ago. We went out as far as the city would allow us. It has a monolithic footing, stem wall and slab! 13 yards of 5,000 lb. concrete.

Hard to see here, but the widow panels are inset. The cedar shingles have since weathered in quite nicely.

Shingled wingwall adds privacy on the new deck. We added a custom pipe railing.

An architectural look.

Lots of windows bring in light.

Site built newel posts were fun. I had to grind the iron balluster caps down to the stair angle. These pictures are a little washed out for some reason.

This bending rail and laminated balluster base and skirtboards were tricky. The curve is a compound one, helical.

Hard to see here, but the skirtboard trim flushes up with the baluster base.

Kids room. Little girl chose the paint. All the trim up here was painted.

A double barrel vault. You could land a Chinook on this thing when it was finished.

We threw sand in the building for the hydro floor. Man, what a job. We poured the floor and it was textured and etched to look like leather. It was difficult because we had to finish the house, drywall, paint, trim, etc. with the finished floor already in. We ended up having to put down cardboard protection three separate times.

Cedar 1 x 4 Tongue and Groove. Fun, but lots of it inside and out.
I used biscuits on the miters and glued them in.

Look at those cobwebs already! Busy spiders...

Doug Fir Casing....no miters! I am not sure I liked the curved modern lighting track used by the electricians.

Trex Deck......no water in the pond yet. Eventually we added a windmill to pump and circulate the water because the plants, snails, etc. the homeowners put in had died from lack of oxygen.

First Day On The Job....boy it was cold

Framing and Sheathing

Hip Framing including perlins and hip beams

Socomy Lam soffitts and fascia with continuous eave vents.....haven't installed the crown moulding yet here.This picture is a little fuzzy, bu it shows the crown moulding and returns.

Newels

Front Door Casing

Crown

24" x 24" x 20' Doug Fir. These longer beams weighed 650 lbs. each! We winched them up with two cable lifts and secured them with hundreds of 1/2" bolts and angle iron to the roof trusses. It was hot up there that day.
