Wooden sculptures

I do not know where I find on the internet these pictures and I do not know who is the author but they are magnificently done , considering they are from wood.
Woodwork humour
Posted By WoodWorker on September 27, 2009
You know you’re a woodworker if/when:
1. You can tell how many tools you’ve sharpened this week by the number of bald spots on your forearms – or legs if that’s how you check your edge.
2. You get the Sunday paper just for ads on Furniture you can make, or Tools you can buy on sale.
3. You havn’t bought a razor in years, because you’re sharpening skills are that good!
4.You try to persuade your neighbor to trim his trees so you can get some extra wood.
5. Your honey would rather you wore gloves to bed than to allow you to touch her with your scratchy rough hands!
Thats it for tonight… gotta go get the kids to bed and find some soft gloves.
My first parquetry coffee table.
Posted By WoodWorker on September 26, 2009
This is first of four I have made in total.
I made this coffee table in year 1999.
Back then I worked in a small firm building custom furniture and I had good boss and free time on my work place.
Its 100% particle board and veneer , no wood are used.
My boss charged me for materials and uses of his tools 1/5 of my monthly income ( circa $70.00 back then).
I sold it 30 min after the lacquer was dry for a 1 monthly income.
Rest of my coffee tables : 2. 3. 4.
