Serrano Ham Stand
These are used to hold a leg of ham in place securely to allow for easy and safe carving. You find them all over Spain, Italy and most of Europe. However they are slightly harder to come by here in the UK. Made from scratch using Monterey Cypress once again, Finished in Mineral Oil with some big coach bolts as a clamp for the trotter. (When it has a leg of ham in it I will re-post this to give you a better idea of what its for)

Puzzle Boards
My sister came to me earlier this year and asked if I could fashion her some sort of puzzle board, to make doing Jigsaws in a small flat easier and less table surface consuming. I kept it simple, using 5.5mm ply board and 22mm batten. For the first time since I began woodworking I actually had to buy the wood! I made it large enough to accommodate puzzles up to 2000 pieces, with 4 drawers. The Drawer handles are simply rings of Hawthorne cut in half and attached with glue.

Top. 5.5mm Ply (105cx x 75cm) Bottom (100cm x 55cm) |
Having made the first board, I was then commissioned to make a slightly smaller version for a friend. Big enough o accommodate 1000 piece puzzles with a width of 100cm and a depth of 55cm.

Chopping Boards
Finally got around to photographing some more recent pieces. Here we have a selection of Chopping Boards, the lighter ones being Monterey Cypress and the darker one being Beech. Both of these woods are great to work with. Especially lovely grain with the Monterey Cypress. Finished with Mineral Oil to ensure durability, as many coats as they would take!
