Crawling around under the basement stairs to find what may or may not be in this box or that was a pain. However, leaving the space empty was not an option. I built this cart to make use of every …Source

Refurbished bench using QS white oak

Furnished content.

Refurbished bench using QS white oakNot a lot to say here, a neighbor down the road had a free sign next to this and one other similar bench. I stripped the paint, repainted, and used quarter-sawn white oak for the frame/slats. I've never made anything for the outdoors before, not sure how long it will last before it starts to fade/wear. On the wood I used boiled linseed oil and then several coats of SPAR urethane.

The box top is bookmatched mystery wood, the rest is leftover Genuine Mahogany with Brusso latches, and hinges.

Gazebo Fly-Through Platform Bird Feeder

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Gazebo Fly-Through Platform Bird FeederI build these large fly-through bird feeders about 10 years ago. The first one I designed after I had patched up an old Amish-built one for a coworker. That bird feeder was quite large and had a copper roof on it. I really liked how practical it was – you simply toss bird seed inside and the birds just fly in and out of it as they stop for a snack. I even added a plexiglass bottom on some of the later ones so the bottoms would last longer. They are 24” across and around 24” tall. The gold and black one was for my parents (they live near Pittsburgh). I was surprised how many years these have lasted outdoors… unfortunately the squirrels like them too…
