    I agree with these prices though I’d drop the price of the radial arm saw to more like $125, around my area they don’t sell well

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    I started by making little projects like boxes and small stands. I subscribed to a lot of the common magazines and read some books. I also went down the Youtube rabbit hole.

    I will add the YT list.

    Years ago (2008?) I had lots of help from a family member, but I did a fair share of work to make this desk and this table. The bottom half of the desk was painted last year by my SIL who likes painting. I did the stains and finishes on these.

    More recently I decided to build an above ground pond from extra pallets. This I did entirely on my own. Its not finished yet, but this is a decent in progress shot.

    Tamar is cool you will dig her. She has a mind for jigs, and making a limited selection of tools do big things. Very cool lady, and a good Mom.

    I like Four Eyes process but not his style. I'm not a mid century kinda guy. And I have yet to understand why Shawn Boyd dropped his own channel and joined his. Him and J Kat had adjoining shops at one time.

    Yeah, aesthetically I like their Mid Century Modern designs but not necessarily for me. I still find the channel entertaining and you can pick up a tip or two here and there.

    I forgot to mention Stumpy Nubs. He has some good info and tips as well.

    I'm not a professional woodworker but I've done a few things here and there. This was one of my school projects...

    Squirt! You're so handy!

    Where did you come from? Have you been here all along and I didn't notice?

    I probably should, but I don't really know all the style terminology well. Can you show me with pics what kind of mid century modern you aesthetically like vs. what styles you prefer to make/have?

    I wouldn't really call it a shop as in organized and setup for working. I would call it more of a garage with tools in it and you have to go on a scavenger hunt to find what you need. ;)

    I know how you did some concrete work a little bit ago and we also have some concrete finishing stuff like trowels and such. We even have my grandpa's really old concrete trowel machine. That's one of my other projects to get running again. Once I get it going it'll be for sale :)

    My wife and father in law own a wood working business. They work their butts off and can be a struggle some time. They make fantastic custom stuff. Any small business help would be much appreciated.

    If interested, you can follow on instagram or facebook.
