My husband sawed some boards from a cherry log.  The boards look nice- now to figure out what to make with them.  There's a few more cherry logs to cut yet though.

We milled out a design for my niece's wedding coming up.  I based it on a photo of the proposal.

 My husband moved some logs into the yard.  Two were longer than our gate is wide.  These are the cherry logs he is going to cut into boards... some day, when we have decent weather again.

A cherry tree fell down in the woods.  We brought the logs up to cut into lumber.  It has a nice red color right now.

My husband bought the stuff for a chain saw sawmill.  He practiced today on a poplar which fell in the woods last year.

I got four of these made.

I'm working on a new wood engraved sign.  This one has a lot of hand painting.

We were at my father-in-law's today for Thanksgiving and got a look at the tree he had cut down.

This log is ours.  It's long enough to perhaps be made bar height.

The cherry logs we cut in March made it home.  This one is my sister's log.  They're big.  We're going to attempt to make them into tables.

I like the blue background best.

I'm trying to engrave snowflakes in wood.

This is one of the boxes my dad made.

 Today was the school's art show.  Both kids had work there.   My daughter had two pictures (one of hers is the bottom right- a cat with green eyes).  My son had all three of the projects on the table.- a folding stool, the horseshoe butterfly, and wooden toaster tongs.

My husband bought a literal ton of metal from an auction for $10.  It's a belt sander, which would be nice for my wood carvings if we can get it going.  I think the biggest issue is that the motor needs more electric than what our residential home can get.

My daughter finished her project and took it to school and back already.  I guess the teacher liked it, though we haven't heard a grade yet.

My son made this stool at school. It folds up and is made from red elm.

My daughter is involved in a 'secret Santa' in one of her classes.  We carved the kid's name in a strip of wood.
