Unlocked a new strat for keeping a bunch of screws handy for a framing project I’m doing. No I will not be getting a tool belt. No they don’t fall out when I thrash around. Yes this is so I can taste my zyn instead of having that metallic taste in my mouth all day.

My perfect measuring on the backboard and my machine level precision cutting the blocks for the holds

timber came in at .91p/m so this thing probably costs less then the pint it supports (had I bought said pint in a pub and not my local Lidl)

not much more to say, banged it together in a couple hours, it definitely took me longer to figure out how to set up the planer and sharpen it, then to build the table.

They're just for plants.

I made it all by myself with crooked old pallets and left over hardware it’s my favorite thing ever

Made this mallet a year ago and it’s still going strong. In that time the face has been beaten in, and it’s gone from bright green to slightly green.

I made this all by myself.

Bought some bulk mini split wire so we made a spool for it to make installation easier.

they are made from roofing battens which cost about .70p per m so each one costs less then a fiver

​

managed to grow pak choi and spring onions which went great in stir fry's

​

they aren't really raised planters, but raised wooden frames that support plastic garden troughs,

​

i figured the constant moisture that a plant needs would weaken any wooden trough so I combined the best of both, wooden structure, plastic trough

​

something about the tall legs on the taller planters protects against slugs, the bastards got my pak choi on the lower planter but were repelled from the taller ones

​

the last planter without any trough was just a bit of fun and surely destined for the firepit

I'm not sure this is what Tiger Cabins had in mind when they booked their Reddit Ad's....

*mindfully taped the cables safely out of the way to build the shelving, designing as if taping magically made them disappear

*mindlessly

Started as a jewelry box… miters didnt line up and ran out of wood

don't really know where else this fits but i made this shitty witch hut out of junk in my garden

​

weighs about as much as a ford fiesta, though I could probably park a fiesta on top of this without breaking it

​

cost me about 30 quid in timber, it's hideously uncomfortable for some reason, though I haven't gotten around to getting a cushion for it yet

​

if I could go back I would probably have looked at some available sun loungers before building this or mocked up a shitty drawing or something, or just built a hammock stand instead, lesson learned

​

does come in handy as a bench, I clamped some long boards to the arms and it let me easily plane them so I could join them together

​

Went into the garage not knowing what to do today, then I looked outside and saw my roommate chopped down the invasive Tree of Heaven and was inspired to pass the time enjoying the lovely fragrance of this wood to make a mallet that is way too heavy and will surely split.

I thought I'd like woodworking.
Then I sanded a project. Once.
This is me spending premium $$$ ($20/ 6'x12"x.5"MDF) so I would not have to sand or paint. This is also me cutting and slapping said boards against the wall until shelves happen. Then sh*t 1/8" backing board cut by an awesome home depot tech.

Level? Hard no.
Plumb? What's this got to do with pipes??
Studs? Found some eventually! I *might* even have some screws sent into studs!

BUT SHELVES FLIPPIN HAPPENED.
Now I just need to get some edge banding for the cut ends.

I cracked the 1st shaft, the tenon was to tight for the mortice, or maybe I have that backwards.

the second shaft was half a cm too small in some places. I ended up liberally applying gorilla glue and smacking a few retroactive wedges in the gaps.

Just gonna whack this thing at my chisel until I figure out handmade mortice & tenons. on second thought - if I can use it to create even one mort/ten then I will consider that a victory.

Got the timber from an old tree down the end of my garden so plenty more stock for practise.

Pray for me fellow shitty woodworkers

Yes, it works
