I posted this one to !woodworking@lemmy.ca too, as I do most of my furniture projects, but I’m particularly proud of how this one came out. Solid white oak with genuine mortise-and-tenon joinery.

That actually means a lot to me. I’ll admit that impatience is a significant personal flaw of mine. I’m quick to jump down my own throat at a setback. Someone looking at my work and saying “wow that must have taken a lot of patience” wasn’t something I was ready to hear.
As for having space for a shop, behold:
The 10x12 foot garden shed into which I have crammed a nearly complete furniture shop. The table saw and the planer/jointer cart have to go outside to really use them, and I’ve got absolutely nowhere to put a band saw or a lathe. It would be quite a luxury to have a table saw I don’t have to unfold before working. And my little shop is positively cavernous compared to some I’ve seen. Carve out a little space and pick something out to make.
That is glorious! We’re actually in the planning stages right now to build a 12x10’ gardening shed to get all this shit out of our garage, and then I’ll have a spot to park, and I can move the truck out to have a spot to work. We’re going to the hardware store tonight to get some tools, and I’m waiting for the plans my wife ordered to be delivered tomorrow. Then we’ll buy the lumber, clear the space, and I’m going to build the shed.
