#woodworking #wood #woodworkingprojects

Build two bird feeders—one from scrap wood, one from a $5 fence picket.
Whether you're getting started in woodworking or just want a fun weekend project, this video walks through two fast, rustic builds that deliver charm without stress.

Welcome to Therapy Thursday, where the sawdust settles and the stories begin.
This time, I’m revisiting my very first woodworking project—50 years ago—using leftover scraps to craft something meaningful. Alongside it, a sleek little feeder made from a single picket and a mason jar.

🛠️ What you’ll get:
– Two beginner-friendly woodworking plans
– Scrap wood + picket fence showdown
– Honest reflections and subtle laughs
– A project you can finish in one afternoon

I may have cut a bit too ruthlessly in the edit (sorry!), but if anything is unclear — just ask in the comments. I reply to every question.

Thanks for watching, and don’t forget to feed the birds.
