The first prototype is complete…

What it has reinforced for me is that beginners don’t need a more complicated first project. They need the right first project.

This little cedar box isn’t the destination. It’s a vehicle for learning.

The goal is to build confidence through measuring, marking, cutting, fitting, sanding, assembling, and finishing. Skills that carry over to every project that follows.

Looking back, what was the first project that really taught you something?
