I can’t think of a better way to get into a hobby :-)
I love the little finishing triangles too! I miss living near a Rockler.
Thinking about your project led me back to the memory of the one before… very similar style, but it had a roll of “adding machine” paper that fed through two little strips of thin brass so you could write a note and leave it, or pull it through and tear it off.
think i got those at the depot actually! lesson learned - pine was soft enough it left dimples in the back/bottom on its own weight on those things! :)
This looks great! I like the contrasting doweling on the pine version
thanks! that means a lot to hear.
No worries amigo! Enjoy the ride, there's so much to learn
Ohhhhhh man… Jr. High School shop class memories unlocked!
Pretty sure mine had a small shelf somewhere, but otherwise identical.
Thanks for sharing.
only took to it recently and it helps calm my middle aged mind from being a sw engineer and first responder lol.
