Woodworking

I was wondering if you guys do any woodworking besides working on trucks. Right now I'm building a bed frame so I will have something to sleep on when I move to the city. I'm also going to build a dresser since the one I've had for over 10 years is too small. Here's a pic of the headboard.

And this isn't any one of those premade ones either. This is all made by hand.

That does look really nice. You could make some money doing stuff like that. Locally crafted handmade furniture is just not that common anymore.

Nice work dueller, I used to work as a carpenter's helper many years ago, I have built a few book selves and stuff like that, but nothing that fancy. I did build the basement for my house but that is all just simple framing.

I have dabbled for many many years.

This is me at a wood working class with a few of my projects.
For this class I made a night stand and 3 triangular tables.
