Are you even a maker if your entire dining room is Are you even a maker if your entire dining room isn’t covered in scrap wood? Just me then? 🤷🏼‍♀️ Here’s the truth. I throw nothing away. I fully think scrap wood is just wood not used yet- but I also realized in the whole construction process that I may need to start coming up with a process to stay on top of scraps better. Rather than toss them though- I naturally just took over my dining table and started a marathon of glue ups. Over the last week, I’ve glued up probably 60 different pieces- they may turn into cutting boards, coasters, trays, wine caddies or a huge mix of them- but with the holidays right around the corner is a killer way to make every piece count! Lots of plans with the @i2rcnc for these- used the @rockler_woodworking Glue Mat, only way up glue up! @besseytools_northamerica and @dewalttough clamps- @titebondproducts glue. #glueup #woodglue #scrapwood #noscrapleftbehind #wood #exoticwood #maker #makersofig #makersofinstagram #woodworkers #woodworking #womenwoodworkers
My favorite place in the world is in my shop. ❤️ Working some creative energy out this week and filling some voids on cut offs for some upcoming pieces. I’m always enamored by the dynamics of being a maker- I mean, we’re part artists, part business owners, part designer, part carpenter, and so much more- we are all “DOERS” though. To me- a maker is a “doer”. What does being a maker mean to you?? Working with some @totalboat Epoxy and experimenting with some of their Dispersing Pigments- as well as mixing some traditional pigments from @artezaofficial in the mix. #epoxy #resin #resinartist #maker #makersofinstagram #makersofig #art #woodworking #womenmakers #womenwoodworkers #womenwoodworkersofig #epoxyart #resinart #epoxyresin #woodshop #shop
We had our first cool front here in south Texas- s We had our first cool front here in south Texas- so all I’ve been able to think about is welding! Was avidly sketching some new ways to mix wood and metal on some builds this fall/winter- because there is no way I’m welding in 100 degree weather we’re used to. Cheers to fall, y’all! What are y’all pumped to work on?! Photo from last year- welding using my @forneyind welder and wearing my @keenutility boots! #welding #weld #fallyall #woodworking #womenwoodworking #woodshop #woodandmetal #metalworking #weldaddicts #womenwoodworkersofig #maker #makersofig
Back to building, that’s a cool feeling! Spent s Back to building, that’s a cool feeling! Spent some time today actually working on some new projects, and that’s a pretty awesome feeling! Going to start some Holiday projects too- let’s try and not wait until the last minute this year, what about y’all? Anything fun on your work bench this week?! @crescent_tool Drywall Square is probably how I start every single build. It’s a great way to lay out cuts to maximize materials and is quick and easy to make incremental measurements too. Definitely not just a drywall tool! #crescent #crescenttools #tools #drywalltools #square #drywallsquare #capentrytools #projectplanning #layouttools #tooltuesday
Slowly but surely getting things moved into the sh Slowly but surely getting things moved into the shop, one of the big things to tackle was moving all the epoxy and setting up the @totalboat dispenser! I’m over the moon excited to get some of the planned projects under way and after the first use, this dispenser is already a game changer! Don’t get my wrong, I always had good luck with mixing ratios but this is wildly faster! What are some of your epoxy tips?! #totalboat #epoxy #epoxywood #epoxyresin #epoxywoodworking #resin #epoxyresin #tools #dispenser #measure
Breaking down my remaining full size sheets for ea Breaking down my remaining full size sheets for easier storage- one of the many things on my list to get the shop at least back to working order! Today was good though, and while I’ve got sooo much to do before things are organized on both sides, it’s great to see it start to pull together! @makitatools Track Saw really is the ideal tool for this, can’t say enough how much I use this tool! @crescent_tool Shockforce tape is always my go-to too! ⁣ #tracksaw #makita #makitatools #crescenttools #carpentrytools #construction #woodworker #woodwork #architecture #wood #tracksaw #interiordesign #home #diy #finishcarpentry #carpentryskills #woodworking #carpentry #renovation #homedecor #carpenter #homeimprovement #contractor #woodshop
