Had this cool barn board that I wanted to display, but it's kinda weird to just place a board on the wall. So I made it into a clock! The board has been in the barn floor in the haymow for around 80 years. I just thought the grain on the board was good looking enough to be justified as a stand...

Shelf is made from reclaimed pallet wood. Panels are painted with chalkboard paint. This was my first attempt using my Kreg Jig and I'm now sold on it! Always fun working with reclaimed wood!

Yet another pallet project. Very easy to make.

Had an old sauder computer desk I pulled out of the trash in college. Used it for around 10 years and finally decided to upgrade it. All I did was use the existing pieces for a template and made lots of glue ups. All the boards are hardwood barn boards. All very different and unique. Glue...

Not a lot to say here, a neighbor down the road had a free sign next to this and one other similar bench. I stripped the paint, repainted, and used quarter-sawn white oak for the frame/slats. I've never made anything for the outdoors before, not sure how long it will last before it starts to...

........I needed an outfeed roller to use with my dads hand-me-down Craftsman 103.22171 that I spruced-up a bit…... Being a dumpster diver, I snagged 3 ""Titleist Stowaway"" golf bag carts on the roadside. They have soft foam tires and are about 10" in diameter and 3" wide. They are simple...

Bought a new smith and Wesson hatchet about a year ago and the first time I used it on a camping trip the plastic handle broke and revealed a hollow plastic handle. Wasn't happy.. After sitting in my Alice pack for a year, I pulled it out chiseled away the remaining plastic and fit it with a...

Found a little barn beam in my pile in the machine shed and decided to make some more bandsaw boxes for fun. This small beam was one that was in a pile of other beams that would hold up equipment when changing a tire. I wanted this small beam to have a new life as something useful and...

Hello. This is a brace I got during the summer. I bought it from an antique store for probably $3. Like most braces, this one was covered in some dirt, rust, and grime. It wasn't until recently that I finally cleaned the brace up. I first used a wire wheel to clean most of the rust and dirt...

My mom picked up an old drafting table a few years ago at a flea market, and we used it as a beater table in our basement, but when I started to get into woodworking, she offered to send it to California with us to make a project out of it. I wish I had snapped some "before" pics, but it was...

I pastor a church that is 214 years old, and we still have the pulpit from a previous sanctuary that was on the property that dates from 1879. It was made of walnut, but had been covered with some horrible reddish opaque stain back in the 1920's. So, a congregant and I decided to refurbish it...

My wife made a towel holder out of an old ladder that was sanded, stained, and polyed. Used sliding door hardware and big j hooks for the actual towel holders.
