A frame to attach my gazibo to (so it wouldn't blow away). Cheers and happy weekend!
That would be nothing. I get people to build wood stuff. The only thing I have ever built with wood was a fire. I did that on my grill.
Interesting question
I had a woodwork class in my fiirst year at grammar school, at the end of which, having not built anything, the teacher frog-marched me out of his workshop saying something like 'be gone you wood butcher and never darken my door again.
I am even hopeless with stuff from IKEA, i once assembled one of their room dividers and by the time I had finished, it resembled a cross between a giant exploded Rubik's cube and a giraffe's coffin.
Shelves in a storage closet.
Some piece of furniture as an assignment back in high school.
A little red wagon for my eldest niece.
Wood that I gathered myself or just wood generally? I built a fort / swing set in our backyard for my son, but the wood I used was purchased and painted. The last thing I built with wood I gathered myself was a shadowbox.
Oh cool............well done!! Every child needs a wagon. )
Can I hire you?
I took a wood working class at the local high school many years ago and made it there. Believe it or not, it's still around working and and my niece will be 40 this year!
I do believe it. I just re-built a house and had my closet shelves and clothes racks installed with raw lumber instead of the plastic-covered wire racks that the builders all use now. My shelves will be there in a hundred years........................non sticky. That plastic crap gets sticky with age. Totally gross.
The Radio Flyers were great wagons when they were made here in the USA. I bought one for my grandchild right before manufacturing was sent out of the country. It is sad that those companies that were part of our reality are gone, even if the name is still around like Radio Flyer. The list is long. Maybe we'll see some of those jobs come back. A few companies are bringing their customer service call centers back.
We had to create the design ourselves, cut the wood and put it all together. I made the top edges to look like the fancy design on the top of the circus cages, needlepointed a "license plate" with her name for the back and used braided cord to pull it with. The wheels were wood, too. There were no nails at all used - it was all glued.
