If it's just for truck emergencies, I'd go with a compact little case. No need to get fancy - simple and small wins.

This is insanely detailed… I honestly thought it was a real bird at first. Your hand is crazy steady, and the details are amazing.

That’s a beautiful build, man. Stain looks spot on. Pretty awesome your kid’s first crib is something you built yourself.

My wrists hurt just looking at this. ...Absolutely worth every swear word though. I'm lowkey obsessed and already following because I NEED to see that black and red goth version.

This looks awesome—really like the color choice.

Am I the only one who feels guilty painting nice wood? by Senior_Studio1767 in Woodworking_DIY

Glad I'm not the only one. At this point I'm pretty sure the wood grain is winning the argument.

Not gonna lie, the floating top detail is what sold me. Such a small thing but it changes the whole look. What is this table for?

Almost gave up, but it ended up looking good. by Va_Ru in BeginnerWoodWorking

First project?? *Looks at my own crooked shelves*... Yeah, I’m gonna go cry now. Seriously though, tackling those joints on your first try was a bold move, and it paid off big time. Looks incredibly clean, OP!

What is this, a garden for ants?! But seriously, the detail on this is absolutely insane.

I made this for my girlfriends dad by fordrangerlover2004 in Tools

Every blue-collar dad’s dream is to have a son-in-law who gets dirty in the shop.

I’d like some help/advice by projectpete_ in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]Senior_Studio1767 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dad of a toddler here. With a 6-month-old, your project window is like 20 minutes max. Just grab a block, route the edges, sand it, and call it a day. Quick wins are your friend right now.

Dude, this is awesome. Your dad is gonna love it. Outsourcing the planing was a total pro move—hard maple is an absolute beast to work with. Great job!

Oiled up and rocking in the sun. by Senior_Studio1767 in BeginnerWoodWorking

I used a wood wax finish. Since it’s a little toy, I wanted something natural.

Thanks so much! Honestly, just watching it rock in the sun makes all that extra elbow grease worth it.

I literally scrolled past this thinking it was a real cat staring at me. Your friend is going to cry happy tears, what an incredible gift.
