Woodworking with the kids
« on: January 08, 2024, 07:05:32 am »
Just finished a set of living room furniture for my son's living room. He did the design work on the storage unit, coffee table and end tables. Not being too experienced he made the storage unit a little more complicated than necessary but it worked out well. It was fun helping him since he did most of the work and I got to mostly look over his shoulder and help out occasionally as necessary. It's all solid walnut and I thought it really turned out nice especially for his first serious wood working project. The only downside was that after a session in my workshop he and my grandson would go home and I'd get to clean up - just like it's always been! [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

Really looks nice from here Larry, and you got the bonus of remembering how it always used to be for you, picking up after the kids!
