Let's hear it. No project too big or too small.

I recently finished my butcher block desk and enjoyed it so much I asked for a bunch of wood working tools as birthday gifts. I don’t usually care about my birthday or gifts, but it’s always an ordeal for my family because they insist. So this year I finally told them to get the wood working basics.

I’m eyeing my second project now and trying not to tell myself that it should be the new coffee table that we’ve needed for the past 3 years. That feels like a more advanced project, but it’s so tempting.
