Do you press?! Drill press that is! I’m a fan fo Do you press?! Drill press that is! I’m a fan for a lot of reasons- one of which is their ability to give such clean results and their accuracy can’t be beat! What do y’all use them for? Feels good to be back- even if it’s only a bit today! Worked on finishing some of these boards up- mainly adding the finger holes, but I’ll take the wins any way they come! @skilpowertools Drill Press @freudtools Forstner Bit for perfect holes every time @bridgecitytoolworks Large Try-Square is a dream! #drillpress #woodworkingtools #shopsounds #woodworkingcommunity #woodworkisgoodwork #pressit
My happy place ❤️ what’s yours?? I’m sti My happy place ❤️ what’s yours?? I’m still down and out y’all. I have been able to eat a little today, but gosh it’s been rough. It’s totally weighing on me that I’ll probably never fully catch up before Christmas now. It’s sort of the catch 22 of working for yourself. There’s no one to tag in, and no one to really replace you. Thankfully I account for times like these, but they still are difficult. Plus- I just miss being in my happy place. I don’t even know if that makes sense! #woodworkersofinstagram #woodworkerslife #womenwoodworkersofig #womenwoodworkers #womenentrepreneurs #smallbusiness #holidaygrind #holidayrush #herewegoagain
Y’all. This girl has been utterly decimated by a Y’all. This girl has been utterly decimated by a stomach virus. In the 20 years I’ve been with my husband, he said he’s never seen me stay in bed as long as I have the last few days. Not after surgery, childbirth, pneumonia or that other virus we can’t mention- I usually power through most anything. Maybe I’m just getting old? To make it worse, our youngest got sick with it too. Thankfully this far the boys have been spared, and I think us Listi Ladies are on the mend. Gotta love this time of year :/ Ben’s teacher said several kids went home before lunch today, so whatever it is, it’s cycling through. Eager to get back in the shop, here’s hoping tomorrow I can make that happen! #stomachvirus #momlife #chickensofinstagram

Take the time to tune your tools - always! Right?! Take the time to tune your tools - always! Right?! Was finally about time to lubricate the bearings on this monster of a planer, so spent the afternoon working on getting the small adjustments dialed in! This can definitely be time consuming, but it’s worth it, even in the busy time of year! I use a silicone lubricant on parts that can generate high heat, are not prone to build up, and that have mixed materials it comes in contact with. For most woodworking tools- a dry lubricant is my go to, but for this specific task, it’s enclosed and the silicone will last longer too. Always rocking the @crescent_tool hand tools! Their HEX key sets are amazing, and great when different sizes are needed! #toolmaintenance #industrialtools #toolsofthetrade #protools #shoptools #toolsthatworkforyou #hexkeys #hexkeyset #maintenance #planer #industrialplaner #helicalhead #crescenttools
Happy Thanksgiving y’all! This thanksgiving, I a Happy Thanksgiving y’all! This thanksgiving, I am so very grateful for each and every one of you! This year has seen the highest highs and the lowest lows, and through it all, you guys have stuck by me through the chaos and uncertainty and I couldn’t be more grateful for it! Lots of little girls dream of making an impact. I’ve been honored to encourage other women to join me and so many epic humans to join the world of construction, and I hope to find new and exciting ways to do that! Outside of my family, I always dreamed of helping others somehow and to combine my passion for construction with the world of TV to help 6 families this year was such an honor. I learned so much and it’s an experience I’ll remember always! One thing is for sure, if it wasn’t for your support so many of the amazing career opportunities I’ve had this year wouldn’t have been possible. Thank you so very much to the brands and companies that put their faith in me too, and believe in me and the power of y’all’s support! Without one, the other doesn’t exist, so know I don’t take the responsibility lightly! You are all one in a million!
