Woodworking Hunt Talkers?

[WesternWyoming]

Very nice!

Thank you! Made with mostly scrap wood.

 

[Redmt]

The start of a DYI project.

That tree has a bunch of knots. Is that on purpose?

No. They grew there by accident.

 

[Dan-06]

Ha that’s a good one. What ya making

 

[Redmt]

I haven't really decided yet. It all started off when I was clearing roads and ran across the tree blocking the road and it was too big to move with my d4. I called a buddy to give a hand and he brought his 661 Stihl and I switched to my d5 that's much heavier and more power.
It could end up as a new woodshed or maybe some log cabin type hunting blind. I'll have to see how the wood is when I get around to milling it.

 

[Dan-06]

Would have been too much for my jd 350c for sure.

 

[Mallardsx2]

Free is a great price. Made a stand for it and replaced the plug today. Fired it right up.

Woodworking never interested me one bit, but my grandfather loved it, visiting my mom this week. She told me it’s time to take some of my grandfathers stuff back home to MT , I think I’ll be taking these three items back with me







This table top has a chess and checker board on the reverse side



Just wanted to share some of gramps work with you guys

Wow! Just wow!

This is the start to a very special project for me. I'll tell you what it is as I get a little further along. It's starting out from a Black Walnut .View attachment 362493View attachment 362494View attachment 362495View attachment 362496

That's some pretty gnarly stuff. Would make a heck of a bowl.

Wow! He was a talented guy. Happy to see that you have some of his pieces.

Thanks , not being a wood worker , I don’t have the knowledge or understanding of how hard it is to make the stuff he made

 

[Redmt]

Good looking little Cat. Is that your D4 or D5?

Series 2 D4H. It's worn pretty good but has all new undercarriage and finals. It's not the most stable little cat, but it's pretty economical compared to my 5. It's the one that laid over a year or so ago.

 

[Little Big Man MT Chris]

I was incorrect, the fancy table was made by my great grandfather who died in 1967 before I was born, mom thinks it was made in the 1940’s
And the Eagle and the fighting cocks was made by my grandfather

Here’s the reverse side of the table it’s not varnished like the other side


Maybe when I get back to Billings I can find someone local who can put the shine on it with a varnish coat ,

 

[Mallardsx2]

Small chicken coop to raise the new hens until they can get put free range with the rest of the flock. We will also use this as a brooder for the meat chickens too.

Needs tin on the roof and wire on the sides and a couple coats of used motor oil.

Finished up this miniature piping plover for the wife today.
