Got creative with the laser last night 🤔 think they turned out ok! Some dice trays and Luck tokens for various TTRPGs.
Little refinement and maybe these will end up on my shop soon!

Finally had some shop time today! Sharpened my tools and decided to brush up on my turning skills.
Probably work on restocking for a bit, but I’m thinking it’s about time to reopen my Etsy. I guess we’ll see where January takes me!

I don’t spoil my cats. Nuh uh. Can’t prove it.

Stage 1 of a cat superhighway is complete! It’s a long term project, can’t spoil them all at once!

Apparently I haven’t posted in awhile! Here’s an in progress photo of a recent project, couple of cat litter enclosures.

I can neither confirm nor deny the possibility of #shopcat coming soon… 😉

Ah I love finishing walnut! Knocking out a quick project for a friend’s wedding. Photo/card stands are easy enough and I’m super happy with the piece of walnut I grabbed for them.

Almost there! Cabinet is installed with very few issues, next will be attaching the main door and handles. Some minor adjustments to make it pretty and we’re done!

So excited to wrap this project up, my shop is a mess! Of course I’m already planning some built-ins to replace these bookcases, but I think I’ll have to wait a bit for some free time.

Time for paint! My shop is a decent size, but this project makes it feel so tiny! Finishing a queen sized bed in here has been a challenge for sure.
Installation photos coming this week!

Murphy bed project is coming along nicely! Boxes are done, trim work is done, both of them ready to paint! Then I get to play with the hardware, which I’m sure won’t be complicated at all 🙄

Progress has been made! Parts cut and sanded. I’m a dope and left my hand drills at work, so doweling will have to wait.

Time to pick out some paint and prep the trim the work though!

Time to make some dust, lots of sheet goods to cut

Time to make some dust, lots of sheet goods to cut today. Had to pickup a KregJig panel carrier for this one, 3/4 birch is just a bit much for me to shuffle around on my own. No affiliation, but I do highly recommend it, made the load/unload so easy.

Shop’s mostly setup, 🤔 must be time for a new project!

I’m not ignoring my pile of restorations… I’m strategically working through my to do list. Yah.. that’s it! (don’t @ me…)

Before and after 🙂 still some storage to sort out

Before and after 🙂 still some storage to sort out, but I think the new shop is finally ready to make something!

So excited to have this new space to create things for years to come :)

Family photo! Slowly but surely getting the shop

Family photo!
Slowly but surely getting the shop setup. One box of tools at a time. Even without the shop fully setup, I’ve been collecting some awesome pieces to restore and cannot wait to have some time to dedicate to them.

Electrical will be next as soon as permits get approved. Layout and Lighting are coming along nicely!

Real life has prevented devoting the time I’d like, but I’ll enjoy the journey and get back to Making as soon as I can :)

😍😍 Garage floor is installed and drying 🙂 So very excited to start setting up my new shop space. Glad I had this done by pro’s, worth every penny, Big Thanks to @webfoot_coatings amazing team!

Next phase is lighting and electrical, but first I gotta finish moving.. and go pick up something special I’ve had on order for a bit 😁😉

Well that was a learning experience!
First part of the garage-shop transformation is done! All painted and ready for the flooring next week 😁

Far from ‘professional’ and certainly not ‘perfect,’ but it’s ours and it’s done!

Happy to share details, just ask :)

And so the journey continues! You may (or not) hav

And so the journey continues! You may (or not) have noticed my absense of late, and that is because we have been working hard to buy our first home!

New home means.. new shop! It’ll be a journey getting setup, but I’m super excited to be moving into my new space 😁

More pics to come, follow along as I get my shop built out and ready to Create again!

Time to batch out some parts! Had some requests to restock my display stands, so I got busy and did just that. I usually paint them black, but I think I’ll post some options this time. What colors would you want to see?

They’ll fit any round object up to about 3” in diameter. They fold flat for storage/shipping and lock together to form a sturdy base that will support several pounds.

Recently finished this beautiful jewelry box. A long and rewarding project that I am very happy with 🙂

Thanks to @wolvesdendesignsshop for the inset art panels, they are one of a kind for this box.

More pics as it comes together, but it’s going to be beautiful!

Hi, my name is Chris, and I’m a woodworker. (Hello, Chris…)

Woo, ok now that that’s out there, I’m kidding, sort of.

I make and sell woodcraft items! I sell my various creations on my Etsy shop, and I’m happy to discuss commission work if you’re looking for something custom! (Check out my Instagram for past projects)

This is my little space on the web to share with you guys my various projects and thoughts all around the art (and science!) of woodcraft. I’m new here, exploring woodcraft and its many forms. I’ll post pictures and progress photos of projects I can share and the occasional post about my learning journey.
