The wife decided she did not want to do fraft fairs anymore because we became too successful and it became like a job. I now have an Some plywood and other odds and ends left. I am looking for some ideas for small projects to make. I enjoy puzzels and games and so do the grandkids. Toys are also an option. Any ideas would be appreciated as I want to get back in the workshop. I do have to admit that I miss making the craft items but not the repetition of making dozens of them at a time.

I spent the better part of the fall building jewelry boxes for my granddaughters and toolboxes for my grandsons. It was quite enjoyable giving them to each of them for Christmas.

Build one of those towers for the shop cat. If you don't have a cat you should get one. :)
I like building "no two alike" birdhouses. I save stuff like pieces of limb or boards with natural holes in them. I have not done that in a while but need to since so many have aged out from the years of weather.
I have some tool boxes I want to make too but they are for me. ;)
