My least used tool is an old brace and bit hand drill. This was my dad’s (and I think my grandpa’s before him). It is always hanging on the wall but I can’t remember the last time I used it!

I built this walnut console table for our family room. It was my first time using mortise and tenon joints and I’m proud of the result!
