In the upcoming issue of The Journal of Light Construction, Gary Striegler outlines his take on what makes a great walk-in closet. You can read that article here.
DeWalt has its own version of reality TV with “Top 17 Finish Carpenters.” I’ve had a blast checking over the entries and the step-by-step photos of some of the work. It’s inspiring and informational. If DeWalt runs this contest next year, I’ll certainly throw my hat into the ring.
For those looking to gussy up the mudroom with some good-looking, affordable storage solutions, Workbench Magazine has some nice lockers complete with drawings here.
If you’re still hunched over your table with a ruler and drafter’s tools to make plans, this free, I repeat, free drafting tool might make your life a whole lot easier. Google Sketch Up is a free download that’s worth a bundle. Gary Katz has an excellent tutorial available for free as well.
For kitchen storage nothing beats an old fashioned pantry. This updated version was found on Woodweb and is certainly worth a look.

I’m a sawdust making, tool buying, work boot wearing kind of guy. When I’m not building something useful, usually for someone else, I’m writing about it for Fine Homebuilding or This Old House. I’ve spent most of my adult life honing my craft and now I want to share what I’ve learned. From tool reviews to how-to this blog will explore a bunch of interesting stuff.
