Sometimes your family just gets you, and for the holidays they surprise you with the most epic gift in the world. This year, it was a lathe! Yes… I realize it’s April. But, I just recently got around to building a stand for this sucker and now I’m obsessed. Like most of my shop updates, I had to take space into consideration… so, I made this guy a mobile stand! Now I can move it …
Over the past week or so I have been teasing a fun build on Snapchat and Instagram. Well, today is finally the day I get to share the big reveal! Even better, I’m also offering free woodworking plans, courtesy of Kreg and Build Something so that you can build your own! I created a fun, rustic entryway bench with room for storage and a trendy “X” design. Best part is, the entire project is made from 2×4’s and one 2×2. Bonus win, the wood for this project cost me right around $30! Not bad for a big and practical build!
