WOODWORK
A collection of pieces made during furniture-making training at Hout- en Meubileringscollege in Amsterdam (HMC). Each project explores working with solid wood, learning traditional joints, and developing skills with hand tools and machinery.
CHAIR
Chair with walnut and danish cord woven seating. Osmo 3062 matt hardware oil finish.
SIDE TABLE
A solid oak side table with a dovetailed drawer. Gently rounded edges soften the tabletop and tapered legs. Finished with Osmo 3062 matt hardwax oil.
CHEST
A solid oak chest with a veneered base and lid panels. An inner rim keeps dust out and helps the lid fit snugly. Finished with Aquamarijn Revol oil, with liquid beeswax on the base.
PLANT STAND
A solid cherry plant stand with two veneered shelves and edging. Built using several types of joints, including half-lap, mortise-and-tenon, and bridle joints. Finished with Osmo 3062 hardware matt oil.
WOODEN MALLET
A maple handle with a head made from glued-up solid beech. Cut to shape using a template, then planed and scraped smooth. Finished with diluted boiled linseed oil.
VICE JAW PROTECTORS
Two tulipwood strips that protect a workpiece while it is held in a vice. Planed and scraped flat and square, with a layer of felt for extra protection.
