Sketch of the Day: Storage Stool


This storage stool concept features a hand opening in the top, and a drop-down door opening on the side. I’d possibly add a friction hinge of some sort to the door of this were to become a plan.

Plan of the Week: Garden Stool


The Chief’s Shop Garden Stool - use it as a seat or as a step up when working in the garden. The shelf offers a bit of storage for tools and supplies. And when you’re done working, you can also use it as a side table or an ottoman to prop up your feet. Miter saw, jig saw, drill/driver and Kreg Jig® are all you need to build it.

Sketch of the Day: Garden Stool


It may look like a side table (it’s a little low, but could serve as one), but this concept is for use as a working stool in a garden. The shelf gives you a place to store tools and supplies while you work. You can sit and work, or stand on the top slats if you need to reach something high.

Sketch of the Day: Painting Stool


My wife’s painting efforts inspired me to create this stool. It’s wide with a low center of gravity and is just tall enough to allow someone to reach the top of a wall in a room with 8-foot ceilings. You could also place supplies on the top or the steps when not in use.

Plan of the Week: Work Stool/Tote


My favorite projects to create are those with more than one purpose. The Chief’s Shop Work Stool/Tote combines a stool (for seating and a leg up when working on a project), an emergency workbench, and a tote. It’s a super-quick project designed to built using a miter saw, jig saw, drill/driver and the Kreg Jig®.

Plan of the Week: Saddle Stool


The  Chief’s Shop Saddle Stool makes a nice accent piece for a bedroom, bathroom, or kitchen. Using exterior lumber, you could even make one for use on a patio or deck.

You’ll need a miter saw, jig saw, and a Kreg Jig to complete this project.

Sketch of the Day: Work Stool/Tote


I like multipurpose projects. This stool/tote concept is one I’ve explored before, so additional sketches are fine tuning. #woodworking

Sketch of the Day: Dressing Bench


A little Asian-themed concept designed to be used in a bedroom as a seat while dressing/undressing. Two-sided little miter tapers on the bottom of the legs, dowel rails, and an upholstered seat.

On a more functional note – here’s a tote concept that can be flipped over and used as a seat or a step up.
