Quick And Easy Hand Tool Cabinet

I've been rearranging my shop, doing some cleaning and organizing a better layout. I've got tools scattered just about everywhere, and I decided to make a quick and easy "cabinet" for my handplanes out of some scraps I had laying around. The sides are pieces of oak leftover from my last pallet project (the planter, part one & part two)....

Build A Keepsake/Recipe Box

Since Mother's Day is coming up, I decided to surprise my wife with this box. I knew she was wanting something along the lines of a recipe card box, so I designed this with that in mind.

Laundry Shelf

Ever since the first day, my wife has been asking me to remove this shelf that's in the laundry room because it's too high for her to reach the top shelf, and that's where she keeps the detergent and stuff (she has a step stool that she uses, but would prefer not to have to use it). I was cleaning around the shop a week or two ago and was trying to find a place for some leftover plywood from the bookshelf cubby I built a couple months ago, then realized it would...

Pallet Planter Part One

I had a lady contact me, asking me to build a planter out of pallet wood. She sent a single photo of what she had in mind, and gave me an idea of the dimensions, so I'm building this as I go (i.e., no plans or anything). This is part one: ...
