My grandfather worked with wood in his spare time. We have a sideboard, dining room table, several end tables and coffee tables, chests, little puzzles, a gyroscope, a six-foot long bookcase (only three feet tall, though), a complete set of dining room chairs, and a grandfather clock he made. The clock is entirely wood, and doesn't run anymore because the wooden gears warped, but it's still beautiful. And the things he made look so much nicer than the store-bought wooden things in my house. His house was wonderful - full of wooden things that glowed slightly in the sunlight.
