Broke our banana holder, so I made a stronger one using scrap wood! I loved practicing some carving as well as some more hand tool work... which is very difficult

New Full Video about creating a process for making bookmarks! These are great gifts for anyone, and you can use your scrap bin to do it. These are also great if you want something to add to a sale, they're appreciated :)

New projects, bookmarks! I have been working on this process for a while and finally nailed it down! Full video to come, but here's a simplified version for now.
These are great for Christmas gifts :)

I made some new pencil boxes for my sister, who's a teacher, as a "good luck with the new school year" gift. Thanks to delays in recovery, it took me too long, and now it's a Christmas gift!

I replaced my old Suizan flush trim saw with one from Temple Tools Co. I didn't like having to create more waste, but I think I'll keep the handle and gift the saw to someone who needs it once I've replaced the blade.

Anyone else love cleaning their table saw blades to get all that nasty sap off? I sure do!

I have lost a few 6" rulers like this as well!

Ruler Organization is crucial for any garage shop; it's always good to know where your equipment is for all those emergency line drawing situations you get yourself into. Anyways, here's mine!

The difference between the two chisels is the steel. Harbor Freight uses a cheaper and pressed steel versus Zen-Wu which uses a titanium steel blend. This allows the Zen-Wu chisel to hold an edge longer, which means less sharpening. They also presharpen and flatten all the chisels before they arrive

This is my unfiltered reaction to my new Zen-Wu Chisels. I've been dealing with injuries, and this is my first time coming back to these after purchasing them in March. These are AMAZING chisels! I hope you enjoy my reaction :) #woodworking #woodworkingtools #handtools

Can't disagree at all with you there. I've seen quite a few people do this trick and while it worked, it's definitely not the best. I'm very much still learning and after this experience, I knew I'd rather have a router table of some sort.

I have a new video covering my new band saw and practice pieces. Band saw boxes have always been interesting to me, and trying out some different designs was fun. LOTS of improving to come! #woodworking #bandsawboxes #garageshop

Got these bandsaw boxes done. I've developed Tennis elbow and it's made holding tools and manipulating them more difficult. But hey, I got them finished, just needs some wax and then I can start perfecting the methods. Learned a lot with these! New Video Soon!

New Video is out! Shop Upgrades for me happen in January and this year I upcycled my rickety shelf, made a new table saw cradle, and most importantly an apron holder so I remember to wear it!
