Nothing quite like the smell of wood and a newly built workbench!

Sealing a Wood Cabinet for a Terrarium

What about it?

We have tropical house plants and I want to build a terrarium. I bought a wood hutch/cabinet before considering the humidity aspect. I'm curious if anyone has suggestions on sealing the wood to prevent mold. I bought flex seal liquid rubber after a little research but I'm skeptical about how well it's going to work. Has anyone tired this before ? I think it might be more hassle then it's worth.

Second Solo work today!

What about it?

Same process as before. Only problems are that 1) the wings aren’t symmetrical and 2) the wood burner broke. Anyone have any recommendations for good budget wood burners?

Old Ironsides glued up all right

What about it?

First time making a table top and I decided to go the completely inadvisable route and attempt to build a 3 inch thick solid white oak coffee table. I thought it would be cool to see a log-like amount of end grain. Let me tell you, it was a real treat milling these f***ers down from basically railroad ties. At 32 x 64 I think it weighs somewhere around 200lbs, not including the base. Got plenty of cleanup work to do on the edges but I think the glue up came out all right considering what I was working with. Maybe it’ll turn into a taco in a year but these babies have been drying since 2020 so I got my fingers crossed…

I got a new helper in the shop. Looks like a handy little fellow.

Guessing it's stained pine. Sorry if this is the wrong place for this post.
