MERRY CHRISTMAS DAD πŸŽ…πŸŽ„

Dad,

This tool-tote is a beast. Based on your handspan, it is as wide as your handspan and as long as three handspans. The bottom and ends are red oak, the sides and the twenty-six dowels are cedar. All of the wood, except the handle, is from the Klinger Family Sawmill. Th handle is a branch from one of the trees in Milly Hitz’s yard. Other than the crosscuts, the only tools used were axe, knife, chisel, and mallet. Watch the video (grab a beer or cup of coffee before starting it) to see it made from start to finish.

I had a great time making this for you and I hope it is useful for something :-)

Merry Christmas!

Love,
Aaron
