Nobody talks about this, but looking down at your laptop all day is wrecking your neck. So I built the solution. Solid wood. Clean lines. No cheap plastic parts. Raises your screen to eye level and instantly upgrades your desk setup. Sometimes the fix is simple, this woodworking project is a great way to spend an afternoon in the woodshop.

Can you even make meat shredding claws out of wood? I wasn’t sure how these would work, but after shaping, sanding, and dialing in the design, these turned out way better than I expected. Strong, functional, and honestly just a cooler alternative to the typical metal or plastic claws. This is part of my ongoing woodworking series where I take everyday kitchen tools and remake them out of wood, focusing on clean design, durability, and usability. If you’ve ever wanted to try woodworking projects like this, this one is a fun challenge and I do have plans available to make these if you're interested.

This handmade wooden ice cream scoop is crafted from beautiful tiger maple, combining functionality with natural design. I wanted to see if a wooden scoop could actually work, and this one exceeded expectations. A unique alternative to traditional metal and plastic scoops, it brings a warm, organic feel to your kitchen while still being durable enough for everyday use. Tiger maple not only adds strength but gives this piece that signature striped grain that really stands out. If you’re into woodworking projects, handmade kitchen tools, or sustainable alternatives to plastic, this is a build worth trying. It’s a perfect mix of form and function, and a great project for anyone looking to create something both practical and unique. Plans available on my Etsy, link in bio.

This might be one of my favorite ways to use up scrapwood. Instead of tossing offcuts in the bin, I turned them into simple, durable wooden chip clips that actually work better than plastic. No springs, no hardware, just a clean, functional woodworking project that slides together and holds tight. This is the kind of project that proves you don’t need expensive materials to make something practical. Just a few scraps, a bandsaw, and a good design. If you’re into woodworking, DIY projects, or finding creative ways to use scrap wood, this one’s worth trying. Oil Plans are available on my Etsy (link in bio).

Welcome back to the series where we replace plastic in the kitchen with wood, one tool at a time. But we’ve pretty much covered all the obvious plastic ones. So now we’re building whatever you want to see. Starting with this wooden rocker pizza cutter, something usually made from metal, redesigned completely in wood. Handcrafted from hardwood, durable, functional, and built for everyday use in a real kitchen. A unique take on a pizza cutter using several woodworking techniques, bandsaw work, shaping, sanding, and food-safe finishing. Drop your ideas below. What kitchen tool should I make next?
