About Weekend Wood Shop

Weekend Wood Shop is run by A 44-year-old IT project manager in suburban Minneapolis who started woodworking during COVID when he built a lopsided bookshelf and got hooked. Has since converted half his two-car garage into a workshop and built everything from cutting boards to a dining table his wife actually lets guests see. Not a professional woodworker, not a carpenter, not even particularly handy when he started -- just a guy who watches way too many YouTube woodworking videos and has the sawdust-covered clothes to prove it. Still makes mistakes on every project and writes about those too.. We provide honest, experience-based reviews and guides to help you make informed decisions.
