Thought I would share a hope chest I made for my daughter... hoping to get back into this a lot more once I retire...

Next is a chimney cabinet I made for my son and daughter in law...

And I built the fireplace surround for the brickwork that never was finished...

It is painted black now...

And built lots of quilt racks for the wife and her friends who are all quilters:

And then I made a tin panel pie safe... took forever to punch all those tiny holes in each tin panel!!!

You poke the hole from the back side so the outside is jagged and sharp... it kills the flies trying to get into it when they smell those nice warm pies that are in there cooling!!! Hense the name, pie safe!!!

What did you use for wood on the chest? Looks like pine maybe? Hard to tell with it stained.

After thinking about it, here's the story. Took me awhile to remember. I built this in Wood Shop while I was in High School 45 years ago.

It was originally built for My Mom. On Her passing it went to my Wife and resides in our House. When the time comes, it will go to our Daughter and then hopefully our Grand Daughter.

Made out of White Pine. The two top drawers are false with the bottom drawer being full width and depth.

Starting to show it's age a little I'm afraid.

I've thought about refinishing it but I like it the way it is if you know what I'm saying.

Tried my hand at carpentry with this bench chest for my first born's 1st birthday...she's 14 now so it's full of equestrian gear as opposed to toys

My father-in-law gave some good guidance...now that he's retired and moved into our basement apartment maybe we can work on some other stuff
