IT'S ON! So here's the rules.
1.) Let's make a shop improvement project with the goal of being built by June 30. It can be any kind of improvement, i.e. jig, organization, hand tools cabinet, etc.. but it must involve building and/or woodworking at its core.
2.) Complexity level is irrelevant. All skill levels participate on this site, and the point of this is to improve how we work in our shop.
3.) As always, it didn't happen if there aren't photos, so let your inner shutterbug shine. VIDEOS WOULD BE SO AWESOME, but again, not the purpose of this build.
4.) A new thread will be created around June 30 for people to share their finished project photos and/or videos.
5.) Anyone can jump in on this at any time.
LET THE BUILD BEGIN! (And May the Fourth be with you!)

A group build y'all!
Seriously, this type of project has the potential to be great fun, not to mention educational.
I propose a "shop gift". I don't want to be too specific.
Let's be honest. All of us have ideas for projects that will help us be more efficient or organized in the shop. Some may dream of the ultimate tool caddy while others may perpetually search the web for the ultimate sharpening station. Regardless of the need, I think it would be fun to start a fairly open ended group project that focuses on "shop development".
Also, it would be super cool if folks were able to shoot some video of the build.
Anywho, if you think this is something you would enjoy participating in just say the word. That is, reply to this thread stating the state of your status.
Maybe a June 18 deadline?
Any and all feedback is welcome.
Let's do it!
Regards,
Hutch
