20251003 Peanuts Electrical Box - Jim Rush's Home on the Web
The Music Solution The back patio finally has proper audio. I originally dabbled in low-end speakers to see what they could do, and as expected, not well. So, I started a hunt for a proper solution. M...

20250925 Barrel - Jim Rush's Home on the Web
Barrel has been completed. Learned a few more things on this mask. I really need to design in hooks for things that hang. I epoxied hooks on all the masks, but Barrel's failed minutes after hanging. H...

20250921 Kowalski - Jim Rush's Home on the Web
Life and other challenges slowed down the completion of Kowalski, but I'm happy with the results. I am a bit worried that the connection between the lamp shade (still) and the stage (barrel raft) hold...

Completed Shock's mask

20250929 Shock - Jim Rush's Home on the Web
I was a bit disappointed as I finished Shock. It is much blander than Lock as there really isn't much coloring. I also discovered that the models were not originally proportionate. So, Shock is a bit ...

20250607 Skipper - Jim Rush's Home on the Web
Skipper is essentially done. I'll wire up the plug and figure out that patio cover attachment at a later date. I'm waiting on a streamable stereo amplifier for the patio (tariff nonsense and delays). ...

It's been awhile since I've posted my projects. Mostly because I was finishing up the master bathroom and doing a bunch of programming, which usually doesn't make it onto this site. But, I've started ...

In my last lathe class we made some tops from maple. I struggle a bit while in the class and wasn't happy with any of my results. Getting tired and frustrated towards the end, didn't help. But, the ne...
