This could be work or recreational related. Anything you’ve done that you sit back and go “hell yeah I did that”. I’m typically wary of working on cars because I have big hands and no auto specialty tools. But, I was able to make a pretty involved (for me) repair last week and I’ve felt really great about it since. What about you?


I’m about halfway through the biggest furniture commission I’ve had so far. It’s only a small bookshelf, but it’s solid 1" thick red oak with wenge accents. I’ve only messed up a couple of minor things along the way 😅
Wow that’ll be one hell of a book shelf, are you going to stain/varnish it ?
Yup! Dark red stain+poly. Hoping that using an oil based one will be able to somewhat sidestep the issue that my garage is like 40° right now.
Nice! I love a good stain, the red is really going to bring out the beauty of the wood!
