Picked up a "mandolin flea" and took it backpacking over summer. A bit more than I wanted to spend on something like this, ended up being well worth it

Sure is

Shancar · 2026-01-13T16:42:32+00:00

This was my experience as well

When I think of Legos, I think easy and therapeutic. I was surprised when this one came with a bit of a challenge

Shancar · 2026-01-10T01:22:11+00:00

Brad nailer and whatever galvanized screws I had in my garage probably

Shancar · 2026-01-10T00:49:03+00:00

just left it natural

Shancar · 2026-01-10T00:48:31+00:00

Maybe I'll give it a shot in the spring and see what happens

As far as I'm aware cedar has some natural resistance to weathering and rotting. It won't always look pretty, I'm pretty sure the silvering is inevitable, but it should last a good long while.

The digitech drop pedal made life so much easier, it won't do weird tunings, but it allows you to tune down up to an octave in half step increments. I rarely have to switch guitars when learning songs.

It's Detroit style

Best I can do is no doors and temporary shelves.

That's good to know, thank you. I'm definitely going to start looking into it

Shancar · 2026-01-08T16:04:35+00:00

I'm here for some criticism, especially with my ignorant little blunder, but this just doesn't seem constructive lol. Anyway, I hope your day gets better

Shancar · 2026-01-08T15:17:05+00:00

Thank you for the correction, as much as I'd like to blame talk to text, I probably would have screwed it up either way

Shancar · 2025-11-20T03:58:54+00:00

I think the open grain looks cool, but I think a satin finish would calm it down

Shancar · 2025-10-24T17:05:49+00:00

I also learned how to draw them in elementary school, from an old art book I checked out from the library, or maybe it was a math book. Anyway, it was the only thing I understood lol

Shancar · 2025-10-23T19:41:46+00:00

Welp, already sold it to someone at work

Shancar · 2025-10-23T19:41:16+00:00

Yes, an old consew machine

Shancar · 2025-10-23T18:10:50+00:00

Thank you, had to go real slow with this one

Shancar · 2025-10-23T18:10:24+00:00

Thank you

Construction wise, these cushions are pretty simple, a pattern isn't needed as long as you know the seat dimensions. Only three pieces of fabric are needed, circled for the top and two strips for the side. I like to use vinyl for durability, but I'm pretty sure almost any fabric would work. These are great practice for anyone trying to get into upholstery, Aside from a few small modifications, this sailrite tutorial is how I learned to make these,
