Nice build for a prototype board for Micro:bit

Cool Jig to make thin slices of wood on table saw
Nice build overall. I like the “springs” added in. This would be something I would think of making myself. However I would have done the 2nd version as making the wooden joint seems like alot of work for it. https://www.homemadetools.net/forum/thin-wood-slicing-jig-75482?homelistings#post142877

Could concrete planter build
The author puts a soda can for the insert for the concrete, which is a good idea since you don’t have to remove it when done. Could make a good mothers day project. http://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-SODA-CAN-CONCRETE-PLANTER/

Drill press to small lathe
OK this one build is going on my to-do list. Unlike other drill press builds, or some other lathe builds, this one is pretty straight forward and …easy. And I can undo it. However I may make a few improvements… … Continue reading

Nice looking Bose like portable speaker
Nice build, I like how the author lists out the components and they are all mostly “plug and play”. http://www.instructables.com/id/3D-Printed-Bose-Soundlink-Mini-Clone/

This could be a good way to build simple bird houses with kids
I have built birdhouses with kids in the past, and they like the start of it, but loose interest fast. This could be a good way to build them with kids that is faster, and cheaper. https://www.instructables.com/id/Simple-PVC-Birdhouse/
