Yeah the coping saw was my favorite as a kid as well. So much so my dad bought a scroll saw for us to play with.
Routers have always scared me a bit. My dad had one of those huge 2hp plunge ones from the sixties and it would eat anything.

Record storage monstrosity Im probably going to build.
Havent decided all the materials yet.

Lots of drawers & the wings on the ends fold up & down to just put stuff while sorting

Still have to iron out the internals of the lower cabinet section, and how I want the folding shelves to work.

make a bass!!
whats that like ive never seen pecan wood, is it hard to work with?
Got a google nest doorbell. But the outside of the house has a brick wall that makes attaching anything to it hard.
So I tried doing things the fancy way using PHOTOGRAMMETRY!
Because if I make a MESH of the brick wall, I can 3D PRINT a mount that pushes up all perfectly against the brick! So I made a MESH!
But then got fed up trying to make this mesh work in Fusion360, OpenSCAD or anything. I've never worked with meshes and don't have a damn clue what I'm at.
Then I remembered there's a woodworking shop in the basement here. Grabbed a chunk of old hardwood floor out of the scrap bin, ran it through the jointer a bunch of times to clean it up and make it the right size, put a bunch of holes in it, stained it with 'fruitwood' stain and finished it with some satin urethane.
Bam, motherfucker.
