If you are prone to loosing your place in a book, these handy, Harry Potter themed leather bookmarks will keep your place magically located until you can resume reading.

2x4s are historically cheap material that some people avoid. With some extra work, you can still make awesome things with them, like this sliding farmhouse door.

It’s very easy to overcomplicate projects, which I did with the Overhead Dust Collection Arm. But simplifying the design made it work exactly how expected.

Sometimes, I struggle with inspiration for projects. Since I’m a nerd, I turn to movies and TV to help get the creative juices flowing. After seeing Squid Game, I had to make something inspired by it, but made a few mistakes with Epoxy along the way.

Our neighborhood has been putting candy for trick-or-treaters on tables the last couple of years. Instead of settling for something from a store, I made this candy cauldron complete with custom skull, a rotating candy platform inside, fog, and LEDs.

For many years, I have had a secret problem: I had wood EVERYWHERE in my shop. My old lumber cart worked, but I needed something that took up less space, but also stored more material in more ways. So I built a Lumber Rack on the back of my In-Garage Shed.

If you are working in a shared space like a garage you’ll probably end up having to store non-shop items in that space. However, you don’t want your shop to get in the way of the storage or the storage to get in the way of your shop. Today we solve that issue by building a shed in front of our garage door.

Whether you’re using your garage for a workshop, storage, or a car (who does that?) a shed is a great way to create some much needed space. A shed kit will save you some time and adding customizations will upgrade it to be clsoe to a custom design.

Prefabricated wire shelves are TERRIBLE and we all know it. A great upgrade for your pantry is to make some simple, solid floating shelves. You’ll get more space and it will look significantly better too.

Some makers look down on using 2x4s in projects. However, with some work, even a simple stack of 2x4s can be transformed into an awesome project, like this power carved Mythosaur Skull.

I needed a place for my headphones when they are not in use. While there are many headphone stand available in stores, most are…..boring and look the same. Instead, we can create something unique by trying power carving to make a Deadpool head!

Organizational space in a workshop is an extremely valuable commodity. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could create more from thin air? These hanging Wall Control panels add more Tool Wall space without taking up much room at all.

Using square material makes every project easier, but most makers don’t have a jointer starting out. This table saw jig can “joint’ edges square and make cuts for any other angle to create tapers as well.

One of the reasons I like to make things is to push myself to try new things. I’ve never tried bent lamination before, so wanted to make something outside my comfort zone. This laptop tray has plenty of leg room and will hold a laptop, mouse, and your favorite beverage.

While working, I wanted a phone stand to keep my phone off my desk. I’m also a huge fan of the Marvel movies, so incorporated the Avengers logo into it with epoxy. This was a fun project that would also make an awesome gift.

Peanut M&Ms are one of my favorite candies, and that runs in the family. I made this simple candy dispenser as a gift that look great and is functional too.

A solid workbench is a staple of pretty much every shop. For my first workbench, I skipped all the bells and whistles and made something big and sturdy. It’s not fancy, but it will handle pretty much any project you can think of.

We didn’t want our dog’s bed to smell up new carpet and she (and our cats) needed a place of their own to lounge. This raised dog bed can be made with simple tools and is great for someone just starting out making things themselves.
