real do it yourself tools
ok, we know everyone has their favorite tools, but what is your favorite tool that you've made yourself?
you know, that one little watchamacallit that you got the idea to make when you didn't have any other tools that would do what you needed. i know i'm always coming up with random improvised crap when i don't have anything better, and i'm just curious what everyone else here has come up with, tfp'ers being the creative, improvising bunch that we are.

Not really a tool but a tool accessory. A downdraft sanding table made from 1x pine and plywood top. Hool it up so a dust collector and does a good job of keeping lots of sawdust from the air.
Real tool, probably a bead profiling 'scribe'/marking gauge made from a drywall screw and scrap of lumber. Low tech but fits the bill just fine. |
