      @worn2fade Oh.... the tool chest. Well, I started grad school and suddenly didn't have time for anything outside of school work.

      Here are a couple of things I made recently:

      I made two cutting boards that open up to reveal tools inside. One is made for cooking, and one is made for a picnic.

      And lastly, I made this coffee table. The walnut top is 1.5" thick and tapers down to 5/8", and the bottom shelf is latticed leather. It's pinned with walnut dowels. The legs are maple with through-tenons that are wedged with walnut. I spent a lot of time getting that gentle curve on the table top just right.

                        Alright guys, I’d like some advice with something.

                        My wife agreed to add a garage to our apartment for my wood working endeavors. With this, we’d have to pay an extra $150/month.

                        She did say that she’d like for this garage to pay for itself through the wood working, so my question is-

                        What do you guys think is a not-so-complicated thing I can build on a monthly basis that will pay for the $150/month? Even if I have to build a few of them. I’d be listing it on Facebook marketplace. I know different people are interested in different things, but as wood workers— what do you feel the average Joe gravitates towards?

                          @seawolf most people worry about having to "buy" furniture when they buy a new house....."most" people...

                          In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                            Unfortunately, I’ve had to buy some too. I just can’t make it fast enough
