All, I'm looking for some good ideas for furniture, nick nacks, cutting boards, cabinets, etc etc utilizing Redwood. I'm having difficulty brainstorming this morning and am just looking for something to build. I have no need, just want to work with redwood some and try it out. I prefer something small as opposed to something like a big Screen TV cabinet or something.
Cheers,
Ryan.
A good solid redwood bench pops into my mind. If that is too simple it could be a storage bench.
Ohh good idea. Maybe a chest or something for kids toys... Hrmmm Now the brain stall seems to be moving away. Good idea.

A chest sounds good. I just have this vision of redwood as long-lasting and tough, so anything made out of it (in my mind) is sturdy, simple, and useful as it will last a long time.
Redwood is pretty soft. You can easily dent it with a thumbnail. I'm not saying you shouldn't make furniture with it, but I'd suggest a rustic style.
