🏪👀You Won't Believe What I Found in the Lumber Aisle!

Hey Woodworking Family!

Everyone knows me as the fence picket guy. Why fence pickets? A while back, I found myself wandering the aisles of Home Depot, reminiscing about the days when lumber was more affordable. As I passed by the skyrocketing prices of standard lumber, a glimmer of hope caught my eye – fence pickets! Unlike other lumber, their prices hadn't soared through the roof. This discovery led to a lightbulb moment: why not innovate with pickets?

Why Pickets Just Make Sense

• Cost-Effective: Pickets are a wallet-friendly alternative to traditional lumber, reducing the cost per project.

• Versatility: Their adaptability allows for a wide range of projects, from planters to holiday decor.

• High Profit Margins: The low material cost paired with creative designs means higher profits from your sales.

👨‍🎨 Challenge Accepted - Breaking All The Rules

This creation, inspired by the fantastical world of Alice in Wonderland and the distinctive style of Tim Burton, was a venture into the extraordinary realms of creative woodworking.

With over 280 angles cut and every drawer functionally integrated into the design, "The Mad Hatter" was a complex puzzle that came to life in my workshop. The piece featured a blend of intricate woodworking techniques, showcasing my commitment to pushing the boundaries of what's possible with wood.

This creation was not just about building something unique; it was about challenging perceptions and demonstrating that with creativity, skill, and a bit of whimsy, you can transform wood into a story. "The Mad Hatter" stands as a symbol of thinking outside the box, of daring to be different in both design and execution.

I hope this throwback to "The Mad Hatter" inspires you to embrace the unconventional in your woodworking projects. Let your imagination lead the way and see where the journey takes you.

💌 Stay Tuned for More!

As we continue on this creative journey together, I'm excited to share what's on the horizon for our woodworking community. The world of woodworking is vast and full of untapped potential, especially when we start thinking outside the traditional box of materials and techniques.

Remember, great ideas often come from the most unexpected places – like a simple stroll down the lumber aisle!

Happy Making,
