These are few of the 'woody' pictures I took in Ciutadella, Menorca last week.

Side table in Ciutadella
I spotted this robust, but elegant, side table in the Convent and Cloister of Saint Augustine in Ciutadella, Menorca. I like the unusual Spanish design.
Menorca gate
This is the traditional Menorca gate that is usually made from Olive wood I believe. It is interesting that the angle piece in each gate slopes down towards the middle from the hinge side, and not the reverse e.g. middle top to lower hinge side, as is usual with UK gates.
These are pictures of a new gate piece used in a shop display in Ciutadella Menorca. It was very nicely made presumably by a local artisan.
Sash Clamp and bench vice for holding workpiece
I like the use of a sash clamp in the bench vice to secure work for planing. Picture from Paul Sellers blog.
