My goal with this community is to get you building small woodworking projects using hand tools you may already have at home, and, if not, tools you can obtain at a reasonable price from Harbor Freight or one of the big-box stores.
Your building material can come from many sources. The reclaimed option involves using scraps from cabinet shops or other woodworkers. furniture set out on the curb for pickup. Free wood for our small projects is everywhere. The big-box stores have a hobby wood section and are a good source of pre-cut dimensional material for your projects.
Some of the projects we will be making together include wall clocks, jewelry boxes, birdhouses, Bird feeders, spice racks, and many other items.
Join, introduce yourself, send photos of your tools and workspace, it can even be your kitchen table. What matters is that you get started creating with your hands today, and tomorrow you will be one step closer to a creation to be proud of!
A little about myself: I am a lifelong woodworker and a professional luthier (builder of stringed musical instruments), which has been my lifelong passion!
What would you, as a community, like to start building first? Let me know in your introduction, and we will begin with the most popular choice.
Thanks for joining and becoming a part of this community.
