    You are a talented man as well as a good instructor. Thanks for sharing all your ideas. These were excellent project suggestions for kids and adults! Loved your son's "love you" sign and your puzzle projects. Another homerun video!

    I made that log cabin bird house after seeing you make it. It was fun and there are tenants in it already. I put it on top of a 6' tall pine stump in the yard.

    Fire wood is also great to work with on the lathe. I’ve made pens, sculptures mallets and bowls out of firewood. What even better is it’s pretty cheap too.

    Get your son a scroll saw. They are safer and they can do so much!

    Could you add the pattern for the one piece of wood puzzle?
  • The coaster with holes, defeats its purpose, condensation will drip down to the furniture you are trying to protect.
