I’m pretty proud of this thang haha. Pretty much every time you get a new power tool, they include a battery or two and a charger for “free” so I finally figured out what to do with all these damn things lol

Sorry for the project dump, I’ve been meaning to add some past projects to this page.

This was the biggest project I’ve done alone. I was an 80ft+ run of privacy fence that included demolition of the old fence, digging out the old concrete around the old posts, digging 20+ new post holes, planting the posts, building each fence panel and of course overall construction. It took me about a month (in a cold, rainy February), but this particular project helped me learn A LOT of little tricks and methods to help get big projects done more efficiently.

I also said that was the last time I was digging post holes and I’ve probably dug another 50 post holes since then. RIP to my spine 🥲

I also realized I really didn’t take any pictures of the finished product, just a video sooo yeah. There is one panel of the finished fence lol

These are a similar design to what I will be building in my last post. I built these for art supply storage!

This is a kind of family storage space. I’m going to reconfigure the shelves i currently have (one of my first ever projects) and replace the dresser (full of present wrapping supplies) with the shelves/workbench wrapping around. It will provide more space to fit storage containers as well as a place to put all of the gift wrapping materials, AND include a workbench to wrap presents/storage rest of the year

Really getting everything shaped up the way I want it to be. Trying to make sure I always have a home for extra cuts of wood, as well as fresh lumber. Will be building a rolling tool cart today!

I just bought a gallon of mineral oil and a gallon of butcher block wax. This holiday season, I will be experimenting with different cutting and charcuterie board designs and selling them for holiday gifts. Will post samples as soon as I pump some out!

Good morning/good evening to all the other people who stay awake doing s**t in the garage till 5am and beyond

For everyone who has asked, I will be looking to take on projects for commission. I am still figuring how I will work out getting all the right materials prior to starting each project and getting to the point that my work can financially sustain itself. I'm by no means looking become rich off this hobby I love but I've had a few people interested in having furniture and other things built. For each project, I figure I would charge for all of the materials and a little extra for labor and eventually the extra for labor would build to be enough for extra material/tool/etc.

All that being said, over the past few years I have worked on all different kinds of things. I tore down and built/replaced an 80ft run of privacy fence, I've built at least 10 raised garden beds, numerous workbenches for my garage and basement, a 2 story play house for my daughter (PICTURED, obviously not quite finished at that time lol), I replaced the side porch on my parents house, added a ramp for alternate access to the back deck on my house, small tables, cat stands, small shelves, a huge L shaped computer desk for myself, storage shelves, etc.. (I'm going to do my best to post everything I have pictures on on this page). I recently started to try to get comfortable with building things in multiple pieces so it can be easily hauled and assembled elsewhere. I'm always willing to AT LEAST try a project!

Please feel free to reach out to me or share my page with anyone who may need a project done or who may even just need someone to brainstorm with! The worst thing that can happen is we both learn something new!

At this time, I only work out of my garage so unfortunately I cannot take on big project such as decks or remodeling or other home additions. However I am more than willing to answer any questions pertaining to these kinds of projects if I can!

This is one of my favorite builds. I love building workbenches/storage shelves for myself because you can really customize what you’re build for your needs, and to fit the projects you do/tools you use. They look very simple - and they are - but each time I build one, I see improvements.

This one I built for a buddy so it was able to withhold a lot of weight. I also wanted to it to have some storage on either side, so I cut a 21”x8ft piece of plywood in half to make use of it as the shelves.

Im happy with how it turned out appearance-wise, but it’s also as sturdy (and as heavy) as a tank and I spent a good amount of hours making sure everything was nice and level!
