Motorcycle Rockers
I thought I might share a rocker I have made, and continue to get orders for: the “Harley Rockers,” as I call them, sell quite well and provide me with a bit of pocket money.

Maple and Cherry Garden Bench
This is a 2″ solid maple and cherry “Garden Bench.” My wife won’t let it out of the house. It sits in our front hall now.

Ash and Walnut Porch Swing
I have made two porch swings from your magazine. The second one I made is made from ash and walnut. I made a few changes to the plan.
