Printed a bit holder from Thingiverse for this step stool I’m turning into a tool holder. Magnets and epoxy are up next!

Starting to cool off here in Indiana, so I grabbed a diesel heater to keep the shop cozy this winter. Anyone else getting ready for the cold?

Gave this little step stool an upgrade — added a cup holder so it can work and hydrate! What else should I add to make it the ultimate mini work buddy?

This Rotex has made polishing these epoxy pens a breeze! What used to take over an hour now takes just minutes—and the finish looks incredible. What do you think?

Turning down this inlace blank with my carbide tools — chips are flying and I can’t wait to see that shine pop once it’s polished! What do you think so far?

Drilled the hole too wide… so I let the 3D printer bail me out 😅 Gotta love mixing tech and woodworking!

Cutting a clean slot with the track saw so this cheese slicer kit fits perfectly. What do you think of this setup?

Noticed some burning on my last cuts, so it’s time to give the track saw blade a good cleaning. A clean blade makes all the difference.

Drilling out the hole for the cheese board hardware — this little jig keeps me from going straight through the side! Ever used one of these before?

Now that the epoxy’s cured on this pen blank, it’s time to trim it up with the barrel trimmer so everything fits perfectly. Let me know what you think down in the comments.

Fixing a little blowout on this inlace blank from when I drilled it out. I’m just trimming the end off to clean it up before I move on. What do you think of the color mix?
