I BOUGHT MY DREAM SHOP (but it’s kind of a dump)! Watch the video tour: youtu.be/KXdm9LoRhHE This place is definitely a diamond in the rough and is going to need a LOT of work before it’s ready for prime time. #workshop

The tile in the #notsotinyhouse bathroom is DONE ( youtu.be/wPQGwIphECs ) 🙌 This was such a massive project, I’m so relieved to finally see it finished. I still have work to do in this bathroom to get it finished but the tile is ✅ #tile

Finally picked up some scaffolding for working inside the #notsotinyhouse and man does it beat working on a ladder! We have to add these foam baffles between all of the rafters to help with roof ventilation and this scaffolding made things go MUCH quicker.

Part 4 of the (Not So Tiny) House Build series is live ( youtu.be/TJMaE5WfhsE )! I covered how to frame a floor system, assembling all of the joists, attaching them to the girders with hurricane ties, and finally sheathing the floor with @HuberWood Advantech! #tinyhouse

I’d like to welcome our second little dude, Christopher Joseph Brooke, to y’all. He arrived ahead of schedule at 12:07am on November 9th after only four hours of labor! My rockstar of a wife did an amazing job bringing him into the world and thankfully we’re all happy & healthy.

NEW PROJECT VIDEO ( youtu.be/YQvCyDjqZy0 )! I built custom cabinets and closet shelving with the help of my new CNC. Thanks to @AMD for sponsoring this video, learn more about the AMD-powered Dell Inspiron 14 7000 2-in-1 laptop I used by watching my build video!

I got to try out using a vacuum bag for the first time when gluing up the top on my drill press table and man it’s cool! Ended up with a perfectly glued up top that was nice & flat. The bag is made by @Roarockit and I got it from @Rockler, along with the vacuum pump. #woodworking

The build video on my wooden kayak rack is live ( youtu.be/gO2W0D8GE9w )! This kayak rack features some awesome timber frame-inspired joinery and will easily provide storage for four kayaks or canoes! Thanks to @AMD for sponsoring this video! #sponsored #woodworking

So glad to finally have a better solution for my plywood storage! Built this as part of my latest video ( youtu.be/FWw9ODdiMDE ). Simple but effective, plus it used up a bunch of scraps! #woodworking

New video on the three shop storage projects I just finished is live ( youtu.be/FWw9ODdiMDE )! This first project was a table saw cabinet, perfect for storing all of those extra blades and accessories. It’s also perfect for storing the crosscut sled I just built! #woodworking

One of my favorite add-ons for my new router table ( youtu.be/awsU-tIPwbM ) is this little power feeder. It was definitely stressful drilling and tapping holes in this purdy new cast iron top from @Rockler, but I think it was well worth it. #woodworking

Even before a proper setup, this guitar I built w/ @GrantBatson is playing incredibly well! Can’t wait to show y’all the finished video in a few weeks. Also, the plan is to raffle it off and give all of the proceeds to charity, so stay tuned for more details on that. #luthier

Been working on this wild guitar with my buddy @GrantBatson over the past week (go give him a follow if you want some maker inspiration)! We used Wenge for the body, neck, and fretboard, plus @totalboat epoxy for the left “wing”. Hopefully have it strung up tomorrow! #woodworking
