Any woodworkers?

Show us your wood. We all know what trucks look like

 

Your mother in law must not be like mine. She ask me to teach her to weld, that was 9 years ago.

 

How do you keep your shop so clean and organized, OCD?

 

Those Laguna?

 

First coat of salad bowl finish, looking good

 

That brand is getting some use, good for you!

 

If or when I get one I’ll need advice on how not to just walk around branding shit in the house.

 

Yep! its great! I was going to try the side but I didnt want to mess up on it.

 

Only one way to get good at it, do it*

*on some round scraps

 

you wife would brand your hide! LOL I got a 2x4 that has about 4 brands on it from when I first got it.

 

Lots of work. It’s only about 136 square feet, so if I don’t I can’t make anything.

 

I understand that, my shop at home is so full of stuff I can hardly walk much less get any work done in it. Luckily my boss lets me do stuff at work while the milling machine is running.

 

I like all the clamps, the full sized bandsaw is nice too! That thing cuts pretty good straight slats!

 

FIFY

 

Love to see a full shop shot.

I’m in a 10x20 shed, so small foot print too. I’ve had to do a lot of googling to figure out what works and get ideas.

 

also that arbor tech gouge tool works amazing!

 

Finally saw this thread. Someone told me to check it out probably a month ago. I’m no great carpenter by any means , but I do love making trees look pretty around my house. Bottom side of a live edge table for my front deck. I go out on the boat and pull up root systems from old dead trees in the river during the summer. When winter hits I toy with them in my garage for something to keep my mind busy with. Making wood look great isn’t hard , it’s just extremely time consuming. That’s why true wood furniture is so expensive. I’ve only got $20 bucks in this table including hardware , but holy shit I’ve got some hours into it. I use no power tools other than a drill for putting holes into stuff. Everything else I do by hand. No, I don’t sell anything , I just have a million little hobbies I enjoy.

 

Like why have a perfectly good boring storage door in your garage , when you can get bored and make this ?? LOL

 

It’s so small it is hard to get a full shot. I will have to try for a pano.

 

Like not branding the dining room table or the wife and cats?
