I have been doing woodworking for about 25 years now. I design and make custom displays to the customers specifications. I will post more pictures of my work

Wow! Those displays are super cool! You've really created some fantastic spheres and the woodwork is beautiful! Hope you don't live in earthquake country though. Those spheres on the tall stands look heavy enough to crunch a toe or two if they shook off there *S*.....Mel

Thanks! I cant take credit for the spheres. Most were made by John Rowland and A guy call DZ in China. He has a website called Rikoo. I have designed numerous displays for him and also have made some of those designs and shipped them to China. See Photo below. I also posted pictures of some of my other wood works.

Those are not all my collection. I posted the rest about a year ago, but will repost them again for all to see
