Introducing myself 01.12.2008.

In advance sorry my bad English , I write whit dictionary.

I worked in a small firm building custom furniture until in 2000 we were consumed by larger firm. Unfortunately I didn’t have camera back then , I was making beautiful projects. Our new company started making small wooden mill baulk garden houses
tene

what have nothing to do whit fine woodworking.
I was to lazy to search for a new job so I have been glazing doors and windows since then.
Now I found lumberjocks.com and have seen so many beautiful things , my hands started to tingle to make something nice from wood again. And maybe earn some
extra money in this difficult time.

My other hobby is computer and all related .
Recently I started building my website:
www.isetehtud.pri.ee = selfmade.private person.estonia.

there I have all photos of my works that I have.

About my blog 27.06.2009.
I know my blog is backwards and not in chronological order . Its because I coded it
by myself from blank page and its static .html files , that's why my last post is not
on the first page. For returning visitors I start here table of contents , so they can
see if I have new posts .

New start 25.12.2008.

I do not have my own workshop and I do not have proper tools , so I started whit something small.
Somebody said : sculpting is easy , you just have to remove all the unnecessary material. So I took piece of fir-tree what was meant for burning and with this saw
saw

started to remove the unnecessary wood.
After a little work I got this

When I started using rasps (what I inherited from my grandpa )
rasp

I notice there is some more unnecessary wood.
After more sawing I got this
blank2

Then I used on my regular workplace one of thus for sanding
puurpink

depended which one was free on the lunch hour.
After lots of hand sanding and finishing with lacquer for bouts I got those door
handles situated on the edge.

The 2 pieces in the middle I started 8 years ago and
finished them now and they are from pine tree.
I hope this how to is helpful for somebody.

PayPal 28.12.2008.

As I desperately need money for tools I added a PayPal donation button to my site. Maybe some good person finds a time to fill the donation form and supports me with buck or two.
All donations will be greatly appreciated and spend for making beautiful things from wood.
