I've always loved building/creating things, but have never been a good carpenter. After making a large bedframe to make room for both a queen size and a twin xl matress, I realised how much I enjoy working with wood. This realization has led me to build up an inventory of amazing wood that I hope to find the time to turn into amazing projects!

Where to start on this sucker? I suppose the beginning is as good of a spot as any… Around six months ago, I said, “Wife, I shall craft you a table fit for a Queen.” Well actually, it was probably closer to, “Yeah, yea...

The Craigslist Tree #2: Day 2 - Heartbreak

06-27-2017 07:57 PM by 85GoCards

I reached out to the Craigslist poster on day two to make sure I could still come back Saturday afternoon. Response: “Nah man, that tree is gone. The neighbors don’t get along and they just wanted it gone.” :( After a f...

The Craigslist Tree #1: Day 1 Results

06-24-2017 05:27 PM by 85GoCards

A lot of learning, as this was my first attempt at tackling a large tree, but with no injuries and the great pieces i was able to bring home for the ultimate low price of FREE, I consider it a win. My 18” bar isn’t quite long enough...
