for wood shop i can make almost anything i want, but i dont know what to do.
i really wanted to make a nice sailboat, preferably one i could race in, but plans were a bit difficult to run by.
pretty much anything will go, and im willing to go up to a few thousand dollars in supplies for it.
if you have an idea im looking at anything right now, if you even have plans for it, that would be even more amazing

Sorry, never taken woodshop before, but along what lines do you have to stay? Can you build anything? Or, is there a size limit or anything? I saw someone make a stool on a movie once, just thoguht I would throw it out there. Cool

yeah, the possibilities would be endless.

Wire up something so that you can have a light fixture mounted at the top, have the plugs for the lightbulb/tv/computer things all at the same exit point so they can easily be plugged into a surge protector. have mounts for 6.1 surround sound speakers and a little subwoofer area at the bottom designed so that the bass resonates.

have the TV over to your right at a 45 degree angle, so that you can be on the computer and watch TV.

And somehow build it so that it's relatively simple to put together and take apart. Gaurenteed A+!

it can be any size, ill look into the entertainment center, but it sounds like it wont last me very long to make, i have all school year to do it

Make an entertainment center that has like a wooden base, like you step up onto it and it is like a backyard deck and then its like a stage with a thing to the side for tv etc, and measure everything so it can fit in a corner

if you are super serious about making one and have some knowledge of computer building, you could do a computer tower of whatever you are interested in.

this is just one of them

the rest are here.

Something to relax in, a rocking chair O.o. Wood shop was so fun whe i was in it. Just watching the shapes take form as your working with the wood. Its kinda koo, whenever I go to my dads house he has his garage turned into a wood shop.
