Since 85 I think:blink: It used to be just a job, but now its more of a hobby/passion. I have been so busy workin on my Dattos tho I have neglected my wood:eek: Quote Link to comment
datsunfish Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 I could do that in my sleep....but then I would wake up to realize I fell asleep and hadnt actually done anything.:D Now go whittle me a 620 dash! Seriously though,looks good.You do nice work...with wood.., Quote Link to comment
AtomChurch Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 I like the roughcut wood, especially for a garden/out door [green house] piece. It would be something my grandma would like alot if she weren't blind. It would be cool to extend the back and make more of a hutch and use finish wood. and get a nice dark stain on everything but the rising sun. and then use a light redish stain on the sun for more of a indoor piece i like it alot.

kiznook Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 looks cool. My girlfriend was sitting behind me when I looked at this first, she thought I was on craigslist, and asked "how much?" She thought her mom would like it :D Quote Link to comment

I have been so busy workin on my Dattos tho I have neglected my wood:eek: Very cool indeed. And I hear you on how Dattos overtake other pasions. I was big into customizing 60's japanese guitars, and even built my own robot head guitar. Loved working with the wood! Bought a nice router, scroll saw, and band saw. Hell yeah I was gonna make guitars... Alas I havent produced any sawdust since the day my datsun showed up! Quote Link to comment

djmoreron Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 that will look cool with a bonzai tree on it! (nice arbor and fence too) Quote Link to comment
DatDoug Posted May 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 Thanks guys. It will be 4-sale @ the garden-fair along with other planters and projects I have made. The best part about most of this stuff is it is made of recycled material!:D I used to work for AllCity fence Co. in Seattlle and we would tear down old dilapadated fences and even tho the posts were rotten and sometimes the framing the boards would be good. I have been collecting for years. So, if you have an old falling down fence let me know. I mite be interested in the wood.:D Quote Link to comment
fiveNdime Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Thats cool. I work with wood too since I am a finish carpenter and all. That is inspiring to me....maybe I will sneak:D one into a near future project Quote Link to comment
