Creative inquietudes



In my free time I have been designing this house. As soon as I develop plans for this house and secure the financing, by whatever means necesarry, I am going to build it; I am hell-bent on that.

Hope Chest


I made this little beast of a hope chest for a lady here in Heber, Az. I just hope her scrawny little daughter can move it because I made it out of 4x and 2x lumber. It probably weighs in at well over 100 lbs.

Shed door

You may recognize this shed from my earlier posts. The bottom of the old door had rotted out and I wanted to put a rain guard on but I ended up destroying the old door in my disgust and anger. I secretly wanted an excuse to build a new door so I bought a dado blade for my table saw and slapped this new door together on Sunday afternoon.

Single Bed


I made this bed for my room since I got rid of the bunk bed I built years ago. My brother Chip moved out so I had no need of a bunk bed anymore. I don't need a dressor since I have enough storage in the 8 drawers under the mattress. Because of the tall platform and the railing in the head piece and foot piece the bed is extremely stable. Even if I gained 600 lbs I don't think the bed would ever fall apart.

Whole Body Cleansing and Wellness





I found a wonderful lady who runs a nutrition and healing business in Orem called Whole Body Cleansing and Wellness. She needed some shelving to display product in an office in her clinic. I built and painted the corner units and other little shelves seen here in her office. I took the door that was on her office and fitted it with a pane of glass so clients could look in and see the newly displayed product.

Back Stock Comics



I built these drawer units for a comic book store in Provo. The store had no good way to display the thousands and thousands of back stock issues it had in inventory until I designed and created this 44 drawer unit with full extension drawer slides.

Bathroom Cabinets for Mom's friend






My mother's friend needed to re-do her bathroom so I built these cabinets for her. The bathroom was small with an awkward layout but I think my mother's friend was pleased since I didn't charge her for the labor.
