Project Never Posted

I built this "rocking fish" as a gift for my nephew Sean about 20 years ago.

At the time woodworking was a hobby and I was working primarily as a decorative painter.

We have a newborn baby in the family, I cant wait until Thomas tells me about his favorite fish....

Project Never Posted.

I post very few of the things I make.
Self promotion isn't my bag, so I typically don't get decent photos or videos of my process.

This little turntable stand/vinyl storage is a favorite of mine.
