It feels like spring around here. Here's another planter box system I put together for a client. If you have one or are thinking about getting one of the many out there, and are not in the mood to do the assembly, give me a call

I keep trying to post videos, but they never load. Anyway, building these doors as part of a larger project that I will post after I'm done. I think they turned out nicely. You can't tell by the photos, but they do have screens in the open areas

Spring is on its way. If you are thinking about getting some raised bed planters this year, and don't want to deal with the hassle of assembly, give me a shout like this client did. Each one of these take 120 bolts. Good times

I had someone reach out to me to build a couple of these fold-up bars with an additional top to hold tubs for a self- serve charcuterie. She is planning to start a business of renting these out for parties and events. As soon as I learn what the name of her business is, I will update this post with it . Point being, she bought these plans off Etsy or somewhere so I was obligated to build as requested. The concept is exactly like stage craft so you can strike a large piece offstage quickly. Unlike stagecraft, it weighs a ton. If I needed to build something like this again, I will definitely apply some theater magic to it.

Built another fence last week. This one was new style for me, so I learned a lot. Lots of moving parts believe it or not. Lots of starting and stopping due to different needs of the process. Do the carpentry, then paint, then steel. It took much longer that I had anticipated, but it turned out looking good. The clients are happy, so I'm happy.

Some of you may recognize the location of this project. The owners wanted to keep their dogs out of the garden area. After talking about what they wanted, I came up with this. Looks good and will keep pups out

Had an interesting one. It's not all carpentry. Client had a hitch welded to the bumper of their small trailer so they could attach a bike rack. Due to physics, the bumper suffered from fatigue and failed. I cut off the hitch and welded on a plate to seal and reenforce. A bit of paint and remount the tire and better than new.

Had a client who wanted a trellis for some plants to make the view from their home office a little nicer. After going through some design interactions, she decided on this one. I think it turned out nice. The client is happy.

You know those 27 gallon bin shelves? They can be made to hold other sizes as well if you don't want bins that large. This one holds both 7 and 9 gallon bins.

Had a client who had a shed that barely survived a move to a new location. The siding had given up holding it square and stable. After some discussion, it was decided that replacement of the old fiber siding with T1-11 was the way to go. So, I did just that. New siding, trim and reset the barely closing door. After a paint job and adding some planter boxes, it looks great.
