Tiled Counter
Design, Fabrication
2018
A pair of counters with tiled faces and timber frames featuring three-way mitres with integral mortise and floating tenon joints.
The assembly and glue-up process was quite a challenge as every corner of the timber frame needed to simultaneously pull towards each other.
The timber counter top was repurposed from an existing table in the space, and the timber frames were made from messmate timber to match the counter top.

Eight Breaks Chair
Design, Fabrication
2017
An experiment in break and fix woodworking.
Three pieces of wood were clamped to levers and intentionally broken at eight locations.
The broken joints were filled with epoxy resin, which keyed in to the fibers of the severed wood to form very strong joints.
Numerous pieces of wood were broken during the experimentation phase of trial and error.
Exhibited at Double Take in Wood
