    Hi Dave,

    Welcome to GardenStew from Chelmsford MA. As it is winter and planting in the snow doesn't get anywhere, my table saw and router have been turning out replacement molding for newly installed windows. A warden case is in the works. My friend in the next town just finished a dining room table. An outside project for this spring is a potting table and there is a picture of a couple of bookcases and a fireplace mantle I did a few summers ago floating around somewhere between the peas and the corn. I would be interested in what you are working on/ or planning. Glad to have you with the group. Welcome aboard.

    Jerry

    Welcome to the forum! My husband is the woodworker--currently remodeling a bathroom and making candle stands out of a mesquite tree that came down in recent rainstorms. I just garden and try to keep our small flock of hens happy.
    You'll love it here--friendly, helpful, and occasionally funny!

    Hello! dr is building a greenhouse but it's out of glass, not wood. We are going to be making some walking sticks out of mesquite wood that we got from Jane and Walt.

    Hello and welcome from SE Texas. Can't wait to see some of your projects.
    My hubby builds little things here and there for me. All I wanted to be when I grew up was a carpenter, like my dad. He taught me how to use his tools and I occasionally got to go to side-jobs with him. Mostly my job was to fetch tools are sit on a board while he cut it... but hey... I was tickled to be "working" with him.

    Well, if you're looking for a woodworking project to start - Then why not play with this idea of mine:
