I'm stocking up on cedar pickets this coming fall/winter season while they're dirt cheap so I can go wild next spring building things for my new backyard, and as gifts for family members. There are so many things you can build for a little bit of nothing out of those things! I wish I had known this sooner. I don't have the super fancy tools, but the ones I do have can usually get the job done with a little bit more elbow grease. Thanks for this, it's going at the top of my list!

@DIYGene Месяц назад

You are so right. Cedar is my new go to material. I love how it holds up, how it looks and even how it smells. I was thinking about building these projects with tools most of us have in our garage or can buy really cheap and created another video on building a lounge chair. Check it out. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-upwqAy1bQfQ.htmlsi=WzouaQZsflTm4W4B Thanks so much for watching.

If you use the cool in the description link, then the cut sizes are: Legs: 4ea. 3"x 34" and 4 ea. 2.5"x 34" Sides: 4ea. 5.5"x 28" and 2ea. 3.25"x28" Ends: 4ea. 5.5"x 13.75" and 2ea. 3.25"x 13.75" Top: 3ea. 5.5" x 29.5" Plus use scrap as the inside supports.

Hey, Gene, I just started watching your videos recently, and I'm loving the content so far. I was wondering, do you suffer from COPD or just emphysema? My grandfather, who instilled in me a love for woodworking in the 70s, had similar tremors in his hands, and he suffered from emphysema. Not like it matters, I was just curious. Seeing that just brought back a lot of memories of my time in the shop with him.
