Pictures aren’t showing for me. Weird.

I’ve wanted a planer but the frequency with which I would use it has not convinced me to buy one yet.

At work? Imgur blocked?

Yeah, I really want a planer. I just now borrowed one from my uncle to do the top.

Nope. Using cell data via my phone like I usually do. Weird.

Looking good!

I'm building three of these bars for my brother. Trying to get them all built before I'm out of commission for a week.

Messing around with polycrylic.

Printed this on my printer and transferred it to wood.

Just look at that perfect ****ing circle.

I wish I had your desire to make ****. I have this thing called Shopsmith. It’s an older version but they apparently still make them. Has like every attachment they come with. Maybe someday.

I love building ****. The thought process that goes through the build is almost therapeutic to me.

Thanks man, those white ones are clean and classic. Idk if I've ever posted any of the other bars. People really dig the barnwood style too.

Unfortunately the backyard deck is on hold for a month or so but that'll be the next project

 

[Wandler]

Those are great. Barnwood is very trendy right now but I like the look.

For me that's part of the hang up. I have the skills, but when it comes to creating something from scratch that creative usually ends up deterring me from beginning. I'm a great finisher because I'm such a detail person, but I'm not the best with a blank canvas.

i used to love woodworking. growing up my grandpa had a huge shop, but there was a family falling out so i never saw him after about 14. high school rolled around and we had a really nice woodshop class. retook it for fun even though i didn't get credit. it's something i could see myself getting into later on in life when i would have space for it.

I feel that. I usually always look online for ideas then change them to fit what I need/want

This. Get an idea, do some googling and see what comes up. Then do your thing to it. No need to reinvent the wheel in most situations.
