Not sure if is cool. Dad was telling my 8 year son about out houses, buckets of corn cobs etc. We just replaced our fence. Father son project clock project for Granpa. Dads gone. Son is 43.

And grandpa with one of the eight grandkids.

A bench with a seat that hinges up for storage, out of old barn wood. The back is just one smallish slab of old hand-hewn cypress that I burned our brand into. Every time I sit on it, I'm amazed it still stands. I'm carpenterily challenged.

Not sure if this is diy but my other favorite would be our two acre pond we built. This is out in front of the damn. We got close to 25-30 ft of water here.




And this is the best part about it

Firepit/BBQ from an old chunk of pipe.



Combination cooler and watering hole for the dogs.



Couldn't find one of those swinging cup holders big enough for a Coors Light pint bottle in a coozie, so I made one out of an old fire extinguisher.



Couple area lights that mount into the stake pockets, run off the 7 pin connector, and tuck up under the bed rails when not in use.




Nothing big, mostly just silly ideas and an occasional excess of spare time.

I tend to do a lot of diy projects mainly to try to save money. Typically with whatever I’m building, the cost plus the amount of labor and tool throwing, I often wished I would have just bought it lol But the satisfaction when your done is worth it all.

Built this entry table for my wife a few years back.


Started building a high seat with my dad for my Canam. Having some issues with figuring out what to do with the seat and back rest pad, but the frame and mounts are done. My youngest helped me paint it.




Built a couple of deer stands with the first of one of my best helpers.

I’ve built several things and usually have a couple projects going most of the time.

The three I’m most proud of are our fireplace, dining table, and a box I made for a great friend.

Shotgun Willie - youre good !
