If you own a band saw, the chances are high that you’re looking for a few new projects to make. This tool is highly versatile because it can accomplish cuts other saws can’t. Let’s explore some fun projects that require a bandsaw.
A Dining Room Table
This enjoyable project can be as straightforward or as complex as you’d like to make it. It seems like it would need a lot of materials, but it’s possible to create a simple dining room table quickly.
If you’re feeling more adventurous, choose from the variety of styles out there. Farmhouse style is a big trend right now within the home. You can add your personal detail to the table and enjoy it for years to come.
Coat Organizer
A coat organizer is a fun project that won’t take much time to create. We’re not talking about the outdated coat rack. This piece is a backplate with several hooks attached. You can add more sophistication to the project if you’d like, but it’s not required. This piece is perfect for hanging by the entrance to hang coats and keys when you first walk into your home.
A Jewelry Box
You could argue that the jewelry box is the most straightforward project that a woodworker can make. The same with the other projects, the simplicity or complexity of the project is up to you.
Rocking Horse
If you want to impress your friends and family, test your skills and make a rocking horse. You won’t need too many other tools besides the bandsaw: only a drill and a sander.
A Wine Rack
Another fun project that requires a bandsaw is a wine rack. This project is not for a beginner. It only requires enough space to fit a wine bottle and a bit of precision.
Drawer Organizer
Have you been searching for a drawer organizer in different stores but not liking any of the options? Why not make one yourself? Be sure to have exact measurements before beginning the project. The bandsaw is perfect for creating those curves in the divider.
As always, make sure you’re practicing safety when using the bandsaw. Other than that, have fun and let your imagination run free while you make new things. Side note, these make great gifts.

Artificial intelligence isn’t just a theory from science fiction anymore. It’s reshaping industries all over the world, and construction is right at the center of this shift. From automated machines on job sites to smart data analytics behind the scenes, AI's role in shaping the future of construction is about more than efficiency; it’s changing how people build, design, and manage structures. Instead of simple automation, we're seeing smarter, more responsive worksites that can adapt to challenges faster than ever.

Thanksgiving on November 27th this year is more than a meal; it’s a stage for storytelling. Families are rediscovering the joy of sharing origin tales, funny mishaps, and heartfelt memories. Some hosts place a “story card” at each seat with prompts like “What tradition would you invent?” or “What are you most grateful for this year?” These sparks of conversation transform dinner into a living archive of family history. Recording or writing down these stories ensures they’ll be cherished for generations.
