This one came out nicer than the other one...
This one is going in the house in the man cave

Im going to attempt to make a concealment one next weekend...
That one might be a III%'er flag though...

I think its also about time to build my workbench...im getting tired of using folding tables and tailgates lol

Im also thinking of building a shooting obstacle that collapses into the bed of a truck...

Doorway with a door, window, low wall...shit like that..it would be heavy but hinged so it would collapse nicely.

Heres the dog house....damn dog doesnt even use it....
Dont make fun of my prize winning dirt...

Put a sleeping bag and a sixer of Sam Adams in there. You never know man. You might have to sleep in it one night.

Just kidding, it came out great.

Didnt make it to this weekend...
Im on a staycation so i started building my bench today...
Just gotta get some pegboard and a shop light and it should be good for now..

Not to bad for not having a plan....

Nice work on the bench.

Really like the flag as well.

LuckyLeaky · « **Reply #33 on:** January 18, 2016, 07:12:44 pm »

Thanks.

I think I'm going to start on the concealment flag tomorrow.

Only problem I see is that its going to be heavy...

We'll see.

What should I make it for...a Shield, M&P 9, or Glock 19?

Nice well done bench....nice and sturdy. Are you going to put one of those long power strips on it?

LuckyLeaky · « **Reply #35 on:** January 19, 2016, 07:46:08 am »

Yeah.....
I still have to get some wiring, light switch, and an outlet...

I dont have an outlet where i put the bench so i am going to install one.

So here i am with another week off work for a staycation...

Thinking of building a pallet flag coffee table with a hidden compartment behind the stars for a handgun...
Thinking of doing a III% .....

i got a real nice pallet the other day....
If it turns out nice, which it should.....i wonder if its something that would sell

LuckyLeaky · « **Reply #37 on:** March 05, 2016, 08:05:34 am »

So.....

I made an end table yesterday because my wife asked for one..

2 things happened.....i will never make furniture out of pallets again...

And...

The end table looks like a workbench...lol

Im going to paint it and see if it looks better...if not...my daughter can use it for painting...

ItWasntMe · « **Reply #38 on:** March 05, 2016, 01:33:28 pm »

Looks pretty good but it needs sanded down a lot to be an indoor end table, doesn't it?

Guy1az · « **Reply #39 on:** March 05, 2016, 02:50:01 pm »

Looks pretty good actually. Must have been an exceptional pallet.

LuckyLeaky · « **Reply #40 on:** March 05, 2016, 04:28:05 pm »

That picture is before the two hours of sanding i did on it.....wife wanted the branding to stay on it so it shows its a pallet...
All the X's show where i needed more sanding in that picture.

She wants to do a grey stain on it so whatevs...i dont like it too much because the top isnt straight...the wood is bowed.

LuckyLeaky · « **Reply #41 on:** March 12, 2016, 04:48:59 pm »

Started this one today..
I just have to do the 3 % part but i need black and white paint..

LuckyLeaky · « **Reply #42 on:** March 13, 2016, 12:44:51 pm »

Minwax makes a whitewash stain.

You could use a regular white spray paint as well...it usually soaks in to make it look like a stain...

steve2md · « **Reply #43 on:** March 15, 2016, 07:57:17 am »

Yep, I'd use whitewash, or thin out a white paint with the appropriate thinner. I had a very old aerosol can of white killz that was brilliant for just that application. When it ran out I was pretty sad, since new cans of killz cover the grain very well.

LuckyLeaky · « **Reply #44 on:** March 18, 2016, 12:10:56 pm »

Finished it up today

FACE · « **Reply #45 on:** March 18, 2016, 12:26:54 pm »

Pretty cool.

LuckyLeaky · « **Reply #46 on:** March 18, 2016, 01:30:01 pm »

Did this one for a LEO friend i have....

I dont really like it...should have done it in black and white

The stars look awesome though.....i didnt have to touch them up for once...

LuckyLeaky · « **Reply #47 on:** March 18, 2016, 04:15:25 pm »

Working on this one as well...
I had 3 templates to use today so i did

Kind of got an idea what i want to do...but i have to do some printing and cutting...

Gotta touch this one up a little...I'm using a new spray paint and it soaks in differently than the others that I use.

LuckyLeaky · « **Reply #48 on:** March 18, 2016, 04:57:14 pm »

I dunno....

What you guys think??....

The star is wayyyyy to small for the flag..but the rest of it would balance it out...

That looks good!
