This beauty is soon to go home and get some road time. Can't wait to see her in action. Thanks to Dennis "D-dog" Price, I brought this old buggy back to life, but he is making her a Classic.

Been awhile since we had anything to brag about, but how about the progress Dennis "D-dog" Price is making on the wagonette omnibus. Great job Dennis.

The Wagonette Omnibus that has taken so long to finish is getting near the finish line. It's in the hands of very capable even extraordinary Dennis Price, striper and wagon decorator. He has just finished the lower body panels with a unique Automobile Panel design. Can't wait to see the rest of his work. Great job Dennis.

All but the corners are in. Two more panels to go.

Haven't been working on wagons lately, but I have been working on a very challenging project. This is the public entry door for the New Church at the Abbey of New Clairvoux. It is in the final stages of completion. The next step is the application of some three hundred wooden tiles to the exterior face. Stay tuned for the next update. It gets better every day now.

The doors for the Abbey are starting to take shape. The edge detail really fits this project. I love it, but it is not ideal for these coped joints. They are almost flat which gives no room for error and the edges feather down so quickly that they are very fragile. I start building the panels today.

I've just finished bending the largest piece of wood I ever attempted. It was Claro Walnut 1-3/4" x 7" x 7', the header for a Roman Arch door jamb.

The gear and the wheels on the Wagonette Omnibus are complete. My Fine Liner, Denise Corbett knocked this project out of the park. Thank you Denise for your exemplary work.
