The timing for this project was overdue, but I made time to finish it.

It's been a few years since my last art project so I decided to make another one.

My oldest daughter asked for help with something at her work. I gladly excepted and now she's back in business.

This is the fifth and final project for the new game at Open Door Escape Games.

This is the fourth project for the new game at Open Door Escape Games.

Here is the third project for the new game at Open Door Escape Games.

Our granddaughter is having her first birthday and I made her something that should help her in the future.

My daughter hit me up again about making her another project. This was a fun one to make so be sure to check it out.

We decided to make some changes to part of the front yard. You can dig into what we've been doing right here.

The kids asked me to help out with another project for their Escape Room, which is always a fun time. But this one weighed me down more than any other. To see what I mean you can read all about it here.

I made some presents for a few family members, which I hope will come in handy for them.

I just found a project that I had worked on but was forgotten about, until just recently that is. How long you ask? More than four years ago. Yes...I know...but here it is.

My daughter asked me to make some steps, but not just any old steps because these will be used by animals.

I made some shelves that will hold some some special projects. See what I came up with and how I made them.

What do elastic bands and a bad back have in common? Read on to find out.

I had a request by my daughter Tracey, to make her something she's been wanting. After hearing about it, I couldn't wait to get started on it.

This project goes hand-in-hand with the Lock Wheels below as they are in the same room when you play the game. If you've never heard of the term Buzz Wire, then you're not alone, but you can find out more right here.

I made some items for my daughter's Escape Room business again. This was another big project so sit back and relax.

Here are a few pictures of the second spice rack that I made, installed and looking really good!

My daughter Tracey, wanted me to make her a spice rack, which sounded like a fun project so naturally I told her I'd build it. Get comfy because this was a big project with lots of pages and pictures.

This project goes hand-in-hand with the one below this one (Steel Cage). So what am I making this time? Something to make my life easier when you have a dog. 

What does a new pet and your backyard have in common? Well, it might mean that a few things could get chewed up if you're not careful. But I'm getting ready to mitigate that with this latest project.

The saw stop that I made years ago worked so good that I made one for my son-in-law. But this new one has some improvements that makes it even that much better than the original one.

My daughter requested a small change to a gift I made for her so this is what I'm working on this time.

One thing I really like doing is making things for other people. This time I surprised my daughter with something that she mentioned to me while we were talking one day.
