    This is great! I always appreciate how you share practical advice on how to make things that are useful or that woodworkers can sell. All of the projects you suggested look cool, especially the Scrabble letters. Many of my family members are big Scrabble fans.

    Probably a dumb question, but do you have the dimensions for the shelf (#5)? I’m trying to build it but I want to know the length to cut for both the 1/6 and the 1/4?



  49. Mike N Alli Madden on January 16, 2022 at 10:00 pm

    I love those mallets! I have some of those 10 commandment coins from Living Waters, great way to share the gospel! Also I’m renovating and have a TON of scrap and I’m excited to use some up on fun projects.



  50. SQ4ME2 on January 16, 2022 at 10:00 pm
