This forum is great. I frequently make simple little tools for fixing things. Nothing fancy like some of what I see on this site.

Hi peteco,

Welcome!

"Fancy" is all well and good, but "utility" is most important. Function over form, right?

Let's see some of your tools. Are you working on anything at the moment?

Hi peteco - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

What's next up on your projects list?

I just finished refinishing my 1000 sq ft pressure treated deck. This was a MAJOR job because I had to strip off a solid stain (essentially paint) that had cracked and failed. I decided to sand all the old stain off based on recommendations from this site: Best Deck Stain Reviews Ratings | Wood Deck Restoration Help Advice Tips. The hardest part was sanding between the boards. I made a few different tools before coming up with a couple of tools that worked well. I sanded it because I was going from a light tan to a dark brown semi-transparent stain. I will post some of these tools.
