This site isn’t really about products, but every now and then I come across a few neat things that I would want myself. (there aren’t many consumer products I have much of an interest in) I’ll bet a few readers get a chuckle out of this…
Canvas, leather and red suspenders.
Fun!

Want a little project to get your feet wet? Here’s a great tutorial.

Need a utility trailer?
Here’s a detailed log of how to build a utility trailer. Includes a free AutoCAD drawing, materials list, parts list, as well as lots of pictures. Glen writes “I needed a trailer to haul around a snowmobile so I decided that I might get better use out of a general utility trailer instead of a snowmobile trailer. I checked the local trailer retailers and found that the going rate for a 5′ x 10′ utility trailer was around $1,300 Cdn. The trailers weren’t very strong and were made mostly from light angle iron. Always looking for a good project, I decided to build one instead.”
