Wood working projects for children to do

[johnwc812]

Hi Daughter of DiscoStu,
A great piece of woodwork - nicely finished and a great credit to you.
Tell your dad that he could have advised you on a neater door, tell him off.
Whats next?
You could also join the forum with such good work to show,
and perhaps be the youngest member.
John

it was a team effort. I did the main bandsaw cuts etc. She did all the holes and counter sinks. She has chosen wood work as her hobby so she'll have to produce some more things yet. Maybe an iPhone stand next.

Well for her next project we had a bit of a trawl online and found a jelly bean dispenser. So today she made her own. As before I helped with the machines. We bought some oak off cuts (still cost £17!) and spend the afternoon sawing, routing, gluing and sanding. It's had one coat of Osmo Polly X but it will get another sanding and then another coat.

I spent most of the afternoon being asked if it was time to get the sweets yet!
