Vicki's Wood 'n Things
| Here are some more of my early projects. Having pets has created a need for some customized items to accommodate them. I think the Iguana cages are among the most challenging projects I've done. They required a large number of pieces as there is an outside frame and one on the inside you can't see. |
| This is the first cage I made for Calypso, the Iguana. It was 3' wide and 2' deep. It seemed plenty big at the time. Who knew he'd get so big? |

| Here's the 5 foot tall, 4 foot wide cage I made for the Iguana. |

| You can see how he grew by comparing the top photo when he was 12 inches long to the bottom one when he reached 4 feet. |

| Here's the stand I made for the birdcages. I hid the trashcan behind the door on the bottom right of the stand. |

| This is my first attempt at a footstool for the house. I didn't have a scroll saw at the time and cut the bird shape with my flimsy B&D jig saw. I didn't have a biscuit cutter then either so it's joined on the inside with 1" wooden strips. |

| This one came out much better. I got a Dremel scroll saw so I could cut a more intricate crab this time. The top and sides are joined to the front & back with biscuits. The top and sides are rounded over with a router. |
