Pencil Box
The aim of this personal project was to find a solution for the never ending search for a sharpened pencil. I designed a pencil box with a built in sharpener and an inset bottom for a standard size notepad. I crafted it utilizing a dado blade to create a box joint out of white oak and redwood. Using the router, I created the inset for the notepad and inlayed a tinted acrylic bottom.

Gretchen Chair
This independent summer project was created from scrap cedar boards from the hull of a sailboat. The special concave/convex sides of the boards fit together to allow for easy flexibility and strength. This unique technique creates curves that mimic those of the sailboat and creates a strong durable chair.
