While woodworking is not the easiest or cheapest hobby out there, it’s surprisingly gratifying and fulfilling. Many are starting to take it up as a way to reconnect with themselves, put their hands to work and create something tangible along the way. Being able to take a meaningless piece of wood and turn it into something beautiful is a perfect combination of skill, creativity and patience.

Just take a look at the subreddit called r/Woodworking. With over 3.5M members, it’s a home “for furniture, toys, tools, wood, glue, and anything else that has to do with woodworking as a hobby or profession.”

Bored Panda has collected some of the most unique hand-made projects from this page. Check them out below, upvote your favorites and don’t forget to check out more “things made from trees” right here, here and here.
