On the other stuff, an angle grinder with a 60 grit flap disc works great
I made a fireplace gate for a client a few years back that would go well in your house!

Very nice!
Is that alder?
Is it stained or natural?

Thanks! They wanted rustic alder with no knots.

It is stained "maple" with General Finishes oil-based stain.

Well, after looking at some of the fantastic work on this thread I feel totally outclassed.

Anyways, this is a little something I made to carry my tire repair stuff in. The last thing
I wanted was a pair of pointy tire tools rattling around in my top case. So, I made this
out of leather to hold the plug tools, a slime air pump and the tire plugs. Nothing much.
But it does keep it all in one place.
