And toolmaking, the gouge was hand-fashioned from some vanadium steel.
I'm working on replacing my porch furniture, and the side table was the worst of the lot so it got replaced first....
Thank you technomad and dubyakay for inspiring our third woodworking contest here. This contest will be to build a planter box or I guess a plant pot would work too....

I got a good deal on some pecan and i was planning to use it to build patio furniture. I don't know much about pecan and I'm having trouble finding much info about it. Is this a good wood for outdoor use or should i find an indoor project for it?
