Completely agree, Sean! The way that waxed jacket breaks in is pretty incredible. That's awesome to hear you guys know each other! Really considering getting on the 3+ year long waiting list for one, but recently blew my jacket budget for at least the next few years on a different Portland made...
Have you been to Ship John in Portland? They make a pretty cool waxed jacket that‘s currently backordered until November 2025!

My wife & I are big fans of Room & Board! Actually writing this while laying in bed on a R&B mattress on the king size bed frame I made...also have sofas, chairs, pillows, coat hooks and some other random stuff from them. My cousins live in Maple Grove and tell me some of the sample sales in the...
The nightstands are looking great! I really like how the dado'd front creates a lot lighter box. Definitely going to incorporate that sometime.
I've built a decent amount of floating nightstands/mitered boxes over the years and initially spent time domino'ing the joints...the glue-ups sometimes...
Hey Nick,
I've enjoyed randomly checking in on your thread these past few months! Not sure if you've seen this, but it made me think of you so figured I'd post: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1074260194/festool-lr-32-hole-drilling-system-for?ref=shop_home_recs_87&frs=1
I actually purchased an...
Hey Nick,
Thanks for getting back to me again! I may actually start a thread here soon as I tend to ramble. I'm now a little over 100 pages into Gregor's thread and it's cool how he's kept people updated on his various builds and how that kind of motivates him to push forward. I find I can...
Hey Nick, thanks for getting back to me!
Yeah, I already have a MFT and I actually built my 1st MFT cart based on a video on the Garage Journal YouTube. I unfortunately had no clue that the name of the channel referenced this forum…wish I would’ve stumbled onto it back then!
I absolutely...
Hey Nick, just dropping in to say thanks again for your recommended threads to checkout! I started off with the Tiny Tokyo Shop, which led me down the rabbit hole of the Mid-Century Moto Mecca Makeover and I'm currently completely and utterly addicted to that thread! I've been reading it every...
Hey Nick, I went back through trying to find the MFT YouTube builds you like and couldn't find it...do you have a link?
I'm in the middle of building a workbench similar to Hooked on Wood's Ultimate Workbench on YouTube (I don't have enough posts on here yet to post a link)
If you haven't...
Thanks for the quick response, Nick! I actually had seen Tim's MFTC years ago, but completely forgot about the wing system he incorporated. I follow his Youtube and it's cool that he took over the family farm. Seems like Festool put the idea into production with their mobile workshop...
Hey Nick,
I came across your Journal thread looking for ideas on how to attach foldable extension wings to my MFT cart...I ended up clicking through all the pages and just registered to say, nice work man! I didn't even know this forum existed though I have followed the Garage Journal youtube...
