New ARP Woodworking Logo

My new logo is done! My good friend Sal has done a really great job. Make sure to check out his work on his site, www.salvationdesign.com/v3/. He is a really great designer and artist.

It's Logo Time!

It's about that time that ARP Woodworking got a little bit professional. My good buddy, Sal Dell'Aquila is, as I type this, working on a new logo for ARP Woodworking. I am very excited, he is a talented artist and designer.

Check out his work at the link bellow.

New portfolio site.

I have decided to make a separation between the two current lives of the ARP Collective. Since this is, obviously, the ARP Woodworking blog I have decided to take my wood stuffs off my portfolio site and give it it's own place to live.

arpwoodworking.carbonmade.com

I now have the ability to share more of my wood work with the world.

To either put your drink on or sit upon...

I have been working on this piece a bit. It is a work in progress at the moment but considering I am having second thoughts on the direction it should go, I thought I would document it's progression.

Oak slats with purple heart inlayed into the top. I have the legs off an old chair that I am going to fix up for the legs of this. I want to stain the legs dark and keep a more natural look for the top.

I had initially meant to build it as a stool but I am starting to feel like turning it into an end table might be a little more fun. With the possibility of a shelf or drawer! But I haven't made up my mind yet. what you see in the picture is where I have stopped.

We will see...

Speaker Boxes

I built these speaker stands for a friend. He wanted something to raise his stereo speakers off the ground, simple. I used all found and reclaimed material for this project. The front, top and sides are all different. I even used the leftover wood sealer from another job.

They are about 12" wide and deep and about 24" tall.

Air Stream Office

 My first post (technically 2nd) and my first official job as ARP Woodworking.

An air stream trailer converted into an office space for Taurus Irrigation. All the furniture follows the curves of the trailer. Not an easy task but very fun and it turned out really nice. I stained all the pieces and installed a new floor.

The above set of pictures is the space pre stain and drawers. The pictures below are of the finished pieces. Hope to do another project like this soon.

New Blog!

ARP Woodworking has officially started a new blog space! I will be using this to share all the new things I make!

Enjoy!
