Re: Art, craft and other hobbies

I am replacing most of my fence panels (also extending it) this summer so I have a ton of surplus, semi-useless fence materials laying around right now. This afternoon, after two straight weeks of me finding stuff for him to do, junior cried uncle so, rather then dig post holes and install fence by myself, I got a little creative...

The hobbyists have been laying low, thanks for the bump. Nice 'merican fence, I look forward to seeing the installed photo.

I invented this as a way to carry multiple small objects for people that only have two hands. Can’t decide what to call it...

Another tool box





I had sort of resolved to turn all the old fences’ usable bits into useful or crafty stuff but I’m afraid I’m gonna run out of steam long before I get through this pile. I’m thinking about trying to do an actual Adirondack Chair. That would at least use more wood


Any other ideas?

Really nice.  Am I seeing it correctly?  The door opens moving to the looker's left as opposed to swinging in or out.

freehln, nice job on the door and wall. I plan to do the same for the speakeasy that I'm building in the basement of my 1921 house.
I use pallet wood for making holiday yard decorations. Here's a few examples.

The sled is on the front porch next to the door.

Nice. It occurred to me last week I could have done that with some of my fence debris (a Christmas tree specifically) but I’ve been too busy with work

I have plans for a Christmas tree but didn't have the time or wood to get it done this year.
