Just finished the first thing I've built in years
A tv stand made of 2 by 2 and 2 1/2 by 1/2 inch planks. It's what I'm dubbing "The poverty collection" Basically it looks like a old peach crate.

2. Feels good, don't it (n/t)
I work as a software developer these days but love working with my hands. My best bud's front wheel bearings were just declared DOA so I get to take his car's front end apart this week end. Whooohooo! (Hope I can put it back together the right way ... no left over parts or such ...)

:shrug:

3. "The Poverty Collection" immediately reminded me of
"The Regular Guy Look" from the movie "Easy Money"... Classic.

Are you using cinder blocks for support? :)
