This desk has made a BIG difference in my office. It’s so easy to just sit down and get to work, whether that’s designing a project or recording a quick song. I love how it allows me to be efficient and creative. If you missed it, check it out! buff.ly/3ZIQeq6

My office needs serious help with acoustics. Today I'm building custom sound treatment panels to fix my audio issues and make the space look awesome at the same time. Plus I learn what a bass trap actually does. Check it out! buff.ly/4jbJdqw

I started with a basic webcam problem and ended up designing something pretty cool. Watch me work through the iterations to create a mount that puts my camera exactly where I want it. buff.ly/4jGe7rs

Having a webcam at eye-level is working out so well! No more awkward angles on video calls. See how I made it in the latest video. You can even print your own if you want. buff.ly/4jGe7rs

Ever heard of panna soccer? I hadn't either. But now I’ve built a hexagon arena for kids to battle it out in one-on-one matches. Check it out! buff.ly/4bdFTaT

These kids can kick! I built this panna court thinking it would be simple, and as usual I learned some lessons along the way. This was a fun one. Check it out! buff.ly/4bdFTaT

3D printing is a superpower. I didn’t want a normal phone charger taking up space on my CLEAN desk. So I prototyped and 3D printed a solution that works for me—and it does! It doesn’t always go as planned but I love the process. Check it out! ilt.ms/making-a-hidde…

It’s there when you need it, hidden when you don’t. I love this hideaway phone charger that helps me keep my desk clean. It was quite the journey to make, but that’s what it’s all about. If you missed it, check it out! iliketomakestuff.com/making-a-hidde…

I FINALLY fixed that storage bed I made 10 years ago. It’s still great bed, but the third drawer always hit my nightstand - drove me crazy. I added a headboard with storage that my wife and I both love. Check it out šŸ› ļø iliketomakestuff.com/rebuilding-my-…

The new bed headboard turned out better than I expected! Those sliding panels are perfect for keeping things looking simple. I still can't believe how much storage this thing has now. If you missed it, check it out. We also have build plans for it! šŸ› ļø iliketomakestuff.com/rebuilding-my-…

I feel like I’ve measured MILES of edge banding over the years, and I’m so tired of it. This week I’ve built a machine to do it for me. Simple idea, right? How hard could it be? šŸ˜‘ iliketomakestuff.com/making-a-smart…

Edge banding dispensers—do they work? YES. Do they save time? YES. Are they deceptively complicated? 1,000% YES. In case you missed it, check out how I automated one of my least favorite parts of woodworking. iliketomakestuff.com/making-a-smart…

I'm tackling the Ghia's rusty rear end today with a crazy new tool from xTool. This laser welder/cleaner/cutter combo might be a game-changer for restoration work... or it might just be another fancy gadget. Only one way to find out. Testing begins now. iliketomakestuff.com/welding-with-l…

That xTool laser welder is no joke. Took me a bit to figure it out (and I’m STILL getting used to it), but once I got the settings dialed in, those welds were cleaner than anything I've done before. Ghia's back end is officially underway. iliketomakestuff.com/welding-with-l…

Sometimes tools have tools—those tiny parts that come in the box but don’t really have a great place to go. Today I share my process for designing a custom organizer tray for the xTool MetalFab that can be made with either a 3D printer or a laser cutter. iliketomakestuff.com/organizing-too…

Everything in its right place šŸ‘Œ. This tool organizer has been great for keeping track of the tiny parts that came with my xTool MetalFab. And the process can be applied to any tool with small accessories in your shop. If you missed it, give it a watch. iliketomakestuff.com/organizing-too…

Update: I may have gotten carried away designing the storage system. Custom shelving, a 3D printed sorter, and labeled everything. But hey, at least I can find my bricks now. iliketomakestuff.com/organizing-a-l…

After a lifetime of collecting LEGO, my storage "system" was basically just shoving sets into whatever container fit. Today that changes. Time to build something that actually makes sense. iliketomakestuff.com/organizing-a-l…

I’M STUCK so I’m trying something different—start with what I want to learn and not about what to make. And it’s using some of my favorite things: teak, brass, and lasers šŸ’„ iliketomakestuff.com/making-a-preci…

My metal inlay experiment worked way better than expected. The brass cuts came out super clean and dropped right into the engraved pockets. Definitely doing more of this. Check it out if you missed it. iliketomakestuff.com/making-a-preci…
