Made this for my father in law. It's a tic stac toe game. Have to get 4 in a row either up or diagonal. Everybody loves a good game. Post some pics of your homemade gifts.

That's very cool. In the works of "money talks" it's great to see someone who actually puts an effort into gifting.
The Wifey (cause she has talent) makes many of the gifts we give. We've found they hold a special place in the heart of the recipient.
Merry Christmas.


Sent from my Phone while sitting on the side of the road.....maybe.

Been working on this little project. 3 legged chair. Great for sitting at the fire and camping. Can be sat on both ways but more comfortable when leaning forward on the back rest. Makes a nice little table for beverages and snacks. Making it for my dad this Christmas. Just need to stain it yet

You Sir have talent to spare...have experienced numerous attempts at stealing the table!

18E47488-0029-43C8-8E52-C0C3EDF4AE1B.jpg I made these last year - very easy to build and they have many purposes from decoration to storing kids toys. I downloaded vintage apple box labels for the ends.They are stained and clear coated 1x4 and various end pieces of ply, 1x10 and shelving that was hanging around in my shop.

Does this count as homemade or just home assembled?

IMG_20181112_210529.jpg

This is what I have built my younger brother for Christmas to run his CFD and CAD programs on.

AMD Threadripper 1920x 12 core processor
ASUS Prime X399 Motherboard
32GB of 3200MHz DDR4 Ram
500GB SSD for Ubuntu and Windows 10 OS
4TB HDD
GTX 1060 6GB Graphics Card
750watt PSU
AIO water cooling with 360mm Radiator
Phanteks P400 case

Not really that hands on, assembly was a piece of cake, choosing the right components when you have never built a computer before was interesting however. But everything fired up properly on the first try. Now just to cut holes in the front cover to get more air to the rad to keep it cool under load.

My buddy Catman10 wanted to surprise his wife with a cork board so I whipped this up for him.
