The Nudgee Beach Environmental Education Centre reached out last year about crafting some bench seats out of a fallen Silky Oak tree. I collected the logs, milled them in half and then began a journey of many firsts:

- first time making furniture for external use
- fist time to using a chainsaw to make joins and remove sap wood
- first time removing sap wood from the timber to prevent wood rot and ensuring longevity
- first time using timber grinding discs for carving and smoothing chainsaw cuts
- first time making a chair out of a solid log

The centre were ecstatic with the outcome and have already asked me about another project they’re looking into.

Completed a job at Loganlea State High School last week that proved trickier than expected. They were wanting these large logs to be split in half for massive posts and slabs as an entry sign for their Agricultural Centre.

Needless to say, cutting logs that aren’t perfectly round, nor perfectly equal in width from end to end can prove rather difficult.

However, I did my best and they were incredibly pleased with the outcome regardless. You never really know what’s going to pop up around the corner next.

What a difference some dressing makes!

This is the latest project completed for a customer - a huge 3.2m x 1.1m dining table top, biscuit joined together and dressed ready for finishing.

That grain and colour is just devine 😍

Another dining table in the books.

I have a sneak peak of this one a little while back and was able to deliver this to a very happy customer in Taigum.

When a customer throws around words like”family heirloom”, you know you’ve made something to be proud of.

That top is made out of 2 joined brush box slabs and the legs are made with spotted gum - utilising threaded inserts and bolts to make the table top and legs detach and easier to transport.

I look forward to the challenge of more builds like this in the future.

I’ve been slowly working on a new dining table project that I’m very close to finishing. This is a preview of one of the legs - resin filled gaps and no visible hardware. Always striving to give high quality finishes.

‘Froggy’ the site foreman at the Nudgee Beach Environmental Education Centre oversaw the log collection today. Despite not saying anything and remaining very still, I can tell he was impressed by our effort.

The Silky Oak logs I collected today will become bench seats for the students who attend the centre in the near future.

Out with the old and in with the new!

I was tasked with reinvigorating this beautiful piece of timber. I was given no instructions about how to finish the slab whatsoever, except “I trust your judgement”. On top of this, this was longest slab i have ever worked with - clocking in at 5.13m. I was adequately nervous about this as I had never been given free range with somebody’s elses timber before.

Needless to say, both myself and the customer are very happy with how it’s turned out. I went with clear resin theough the splitting and borer holes, with a matt polyurethane finish 🤌🏼

One small step for man - one giant leap for Evolve Woodworks!

Most people think that some rocket doing something somewhere is the biggest news of the week. When in actual fact, the biggest news is that I’ve finally bit the bullet and started working with resin.

My schtick has been to keep the main thing the main thing and let the natural elements of the timber do the talking, but when a customer approached me about wanting resin filled and sealed laundry bench tops, I felt ready to give it a crack.

Despite having little to know idea of what I was doing and no experience with resin, I have learnt a lot. However, working with resin now opens up a whole new side of woodworking for me and can make timber that may not be as usable for most projects not only usable, but desirable.

I’m pretty chuffed with how they’ve turned out.
