Back before Christmas I built this simple beer tote to present some beers, which I had bought my Dad as a gift. As this was a gift I designed it to tightly house the bottles (the handle acts to hold them in place) but this could easily be adapted for day-to-day use.

Recently, I saw some pieces of wood with holes cut into them for sale online. The asking price was $70. This seemed totally outrageous to me. I decided to spend $0 and make some for myself and show everyone how easy it is to make these. Make some for yourself and sell them at your local craft show for $50. When people ask why so much, tell them that the wood is reclaimed and that they are actually getting a deal compared to the $70 ones online.

Yarn SpinnerThis project started after I saw a post from PapaS concerning his Yarn Caddie. http://lumberjocks.com/projects/61843I decided to make a couple for my wife with a slightly different design. This picture shows the final result.

I found that the most d...

Your old hacksaw dull blades can still be very useful and come in handy when you building a workshop helper.Like in this case in my workshop notes caddy (look it up in my Projects), I used a piece of an old hacksaw blade for cutting paper. Another use for them will be for cutting sandpaper etc.
So don’t throw them away, keep them in a draw and one day you will need them.
