Welcome to my shop—a three-car tandem garage that's seen four different incarnations across four different houses in roughly 10 years. If you're thinking that sounds exhausting, you'd be right. But frequent moves have taught me one critical lesson: put everything on casters, keep it compact, and never get too attached to your layout.

My shop occupies mostly one side of the garage. The other side? That's where kids' bikes, outdoor toys, random equipment, and a home gym live. It's organized chaos, and honestly, it works.

Let me walk you through what I've got, what I love, what I'd change, and why that Jason mask on my wall is absolutely essential shop equipment.

Looking for a woodworking project that's quick, profitable, and makes everyone happy? Let me introduce you to the cheese board—the gift that never disappoints. I've made a couple hundred of these, and they disappear faster than cookies at a bake sale, especially around the holidays.

The best part? These are incredibly easy to batch out. Make a few dozen at once, and you'll have gifts sorted for the entire year. Trust me, as soon as people see one, you'll get requests.

Let's build some gorgeous cheese boards.

If you've ever struggled with complicated drawer joinery or ended up with drawers that don't quite fit right, this method is about to change your life. The "quarter-quarter-quarter" technique uses simple dado cuts to create professional-looking drawers with clean joinery and rock-solid construction.

No dovetails required. No complicated math. Just a table saw, a dado stack, and some straightforward measurements. Let's build some bulletproof drawers.
