Back story:

My neighbor, that I hadn't met, needed lids made for a product his business is working on. Since he always saw me working out off my garage he asked if I could build these for them.

This is my second batch and it's a nice little profit. The lids go on tanks that hold greywater which is circulated through another tank with plants that clean the water.

Since I had to make so many exactly the same it made sense to set up several different jigs to make sure all of the cuts, placement and holes were perfect.

Next up is to get ready for a Mother's Day fair. I'm thinking lots of cutting boards, picnic tables, Adirondack chairs, concealment furniture and shelves, maybe some owl and bat boxes.

Stay tuned.
