Hi Jonboy84,

Welcome - glad to have you here!

What's next on your tinkering/invention list?

When you're ready to share some of your own homemade tools, we'd love to see them. Please post them directly in the Homemade Tools subforum. We'll add each one to the database, as well as to your builder page on the site.

Non-tool items should be shared in the Not a Tool, but Homemade subforum.

Hi Jonboy84 - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

I don't know that we have a cabinet builder on board yet; sounds like your skills will be in demand around here Nice to have you on board.

Hey Ken something I've been working on for the past month or so is a barn for my 6 yr old son for his toy tractors,dozer,crane,etc. it's something I'm really excited about bc 1. It's for my boy and 2. Some of the toys he will put in it are some of mine that I passed down to him so it's kinda like something I always wanted when I was a kid. Idk probably seems kinda silly to some but I think it will be cool. I've tried to put a lot of detail into it with a roll up door on front, working electricity (lights), a loft with ladder access, all knee bracing in place,and trusses. I'm not far from finishing but I have pictures of the progress thus far I don't mind sharing if your interested? Or if you just need a good laugh. Lol

I'm interested! My son will be 2 this summer; he's just starting to get into toy trucks and I'm gathering ideas of cool stuff to build for him.

I'm interested, too. Sounds like an awesome project. Makes me nostalgic for all my old Tonka trucks (from back when they were steel and would hold up to serious play/riding/abuse).

Let's see those pics!
