Do you own a jig saw? Ever tried something different with it? I think it's an amazing tool.

I made every cut on my first Adirondack chair and matching Ottoman with a jig saw.

That was fun and quite easy. Decided on a project with a bit more of a challenge....

Fantastic! Haha no my husband prefers it when I stay away from his power tools because I'm kind of accident prone. But my grandfather loved woodworking (probably still does but he's almost 90 so doesn't do it much anymore) and I appreciate it because of him. My husband likes to make things but they're more practical than pretty!

Hobby? What's that? Haha I am a stay at home mom and primary farm caretaker, so not much time for hobbies these days! I used to be a musician.... Now I guess my hobbies are more productive things like learning how to cook, food preservation, etc. But I am learning how to make soap from my goats milk so that qualifies too!

Jig saw yes my dad is building dog houses and he uses it:). My grandpa that passed away 2 years ago was amazing at wood work.
