Hi, I’m Tony. I’m not a master carpenter. I’m a guy with a cramped garage and a tight budget.

I started The Weekend Craftsman because I was sick of buying ‘free plans’ online that led to crooked walls and wasted wood.

My mission is simple: I hunt down the best woodworking plans, tools, and gear, and I test them. If they work, I tell you. If they are junk, I warn you.
