These are a few projects I have been working on. Any time I am feeling good having a good day I work in the shop.

Yes, I made it from basic building lumber from Home Depot, 4x4, 2x3, and 3/4 inch pine. I made a toolbox and a coffee table from the scraps from the table. I have a little more to do on the coffee table. I will post a pic when I am done. The Dexter Russel lino knife was a dollar flea market find. It was rusted mess with a rounded tip and chewed up handle. I know to much work for a twelve dollar knife. ;-)

I finished the coffee table I was making for my wife. I made it from scraps from the kitchen table. The wood was a little rough to say the least. With a little tweaking and a lot of sandpaper I got er done.

(I also meant to say I like it a lot)
Getting the sizes of projects right is very hard,
something will look great in the workshop but when you place it in real life it looks huge  :o

I purchased one of those models at Disney world a couple weeks ago. Total impulse buy as I liked Avatar. After some you tube videos I'm a bit intimidated by it.  :facepalm:

Don't really have a shop, but the misc. tools I clamp to an old garden table today tackled shell casings to make lanyard beads. I had no idea how thick the end of a bullet casing was...

I just set up a ship in my cellar with the tools I inherited from my father in law.  It's slowly coming together.  He was a big gadget freak and a big time Leatherman fan.

The ship/shop typo gave me a laugh.  Thanks!  Unless you are setting up a ship in your cellar?

Tools with a history are always nice.  I have most of my father's power tools.

I was looking for a lap table and they were a fortune, and to top it off very small, so I bought a nice piece of wood, cut it to fit perfect, then stained it, the came up with an idea after i worked on a model, the models I work on are all metal, and all the pieces come in a few flat pads (you got to cut them out and form them) and since the recliners a little pitched, I used the router and plunged four holes from the bottom, dropped in a magnet in each, then used hot glue to fill each one, and since the model pieces are very small I ran a piece of paracord around the bottom so if anything slides it catches, all for cheap rather then expensive, plus ever so comfortable sitting in the recliner! Just put the tools off to the side! Here’s a few pics,,

You could attach a cushion to the underside for when you sit somewhere without armrests.
