Some interesting recent building and woodworking sites.

In researching some upcoming wood projects I have come across a few sites that may be of interest to some of you.

The first site is actually two sites by a fellow named John Boak. The first site on his building of a cabin here in Colorado and its unique "vernacular" style of design. It is also a great read on how he accomplished most of the building tasks and where he got materials. I think John is a graphic designer/artist and his BoakArt site is very intriguing, especially the wall sculptures.

Another site for those of you in the process of trimming (finish carpentry) out your abode is by Gary Katz. I wish I found this while in that stage on our place, there are a many great tips and articles. I am going to build his tool tote.

And finally, ToolCrib, which seems to be one of Amazons major power tool partners, has a blog which is a very entertaining and good source of info, take some time, when you have it, to read a few entries.
