Trying to use up some of the wood that's laying around the place.
Old reclaimed decking boards. Made up 4 dining tables and still enough to do one more.
1.7m x 0.8m

Hopefully they'll sell and I can pay some bills. ::)

For some reason I never spotted this thread until today.  I enjoyed reading through it and seeing everyone's projects, and I'm looking forward to the future ones :)

Here are a few of my recent and not-so-recent ones:
1. Sideboard with carcass made from shuttering ply (cheap structural plywood), pine face frame and painted MDF back.  The top is made from a couple of beaten-up old pine shelves.
2. Pine chests with leather handles that I use to keep all my drill bits organised.
3. Another small pine chest for odds and ends.
4. A nixie tube clock in walnut, finished with amber shellac.

You wouldn't want to be stuck up the creek on your stand-up paddleboard without one of these...
Timbers are Paulownia, Meranti and Cedar. This just has a cheater coat of epoxy and needs the blade and lower part of the shaft glassed then a hot coat, thorough sanding and a few coats of varnish.
Also needs to be cut to length to suit the user and a hand grip added to the end of the shaft.








Such a long skinny thing is hard to photograph...

Something to look a little nicer than the bare dartboard, and to cut down on the number of holes appearing in the drywall.

Nice cabinet.  Nothing wrong with looking at a bare dartboard though :)  Here's mine.

Yup. I'm thinking about doing some secret boxes but without electric tools (or even a workbench) it won't be easy...

I've seen some 6mm thick balsa planks, maybe they're easy to cut and glue/nail together...
