Front Door Re-casing

I have this nice leaded-glass transom, but it was all rather plain,
so I decided to punch it up with some new casing. The corbels are
sculpted in Sculpy and set into wooden housing. I then made molds
and cast numerous copies in plaster. The woman represents the
warm season and the man represents to cool season and the
emblems above them echo that. The emblems are carved, sawn
and glued wood. The grooves on the vertical casings were
produced on the table saw. Some of the trim is store-bought
millwork and some I produced, like the dentil.

One of a Kind Corbels

These are one-of-a-kind corbels, facing each other underneath the span they "support". They are made of several pieces of wood...partly carved, sawed or filed...glued, caulked and painted.

Recycled Bench

After I rebuilt my front steps I had a number of old treads left over. So I built two benches out of them, carved them here and there for a rustic look and filled the several crannies with odds and ends...then caulked and painted. Followings is a shot of one bench ( the other is in the same style, but longer ) and then details of the "odds and ends".
