What is on your woodworking bucket list?
(But just haven't got the time to make it yet.)

Nothing earth shattering, but I want to make a hammerschlagen, and a stumpfiddle.

If I ever get the time, I'd like to turn blanks closer to the rate at which I accumulate them.

(I doubt I'll ever manage to reduce the stockpile, but slowing down the rate at which it grows would be a beautiful thing :greeting:)

I had to look up both of these - that stumpfiddle looks to be something that could evoke strong reactions (in either direction :sarcastic:)

Previous bucket list was to build a dream shop and was completed 2011. New bucket list is to enjoy it for a very long time.

Finish the 3rd and then the 4th guitar. Also have an idea for a side table from some ambrosia maple, waiting on the leg boards.

Noty in any particular order. A Malloof style rocker, a new workbench, and maybe a couple Morris chairs for the living room. And now that I got a hollowing rig from @Courtland step up my hollowing game and get better at it. Or should I say learn.

Ditto the Maloof Rocker, already have the templates/plans, but just haven't found the time.

Maybe after we all get rich and retire, @woodtickgreg , @Tony and I will all get together and make a bunch of rockers. I know all three of us have mentioned wanting to make one.

Retirement and rocking chairs are slightly related :sofa:

We actually had a stumpfiddle contest this summer in town. Prize was a brand new stumpfiddle. Loads of fun and beer drinkin.

The list is long, and includes many things new and challenging. Moving and building my shop has taken about 2 years, so there is a lot of pent up creativity just waiting to get back underway. More complex cutting boards, hollow forms, and pepper mills are on the list, as are book shelves, a computer desk, and carts for the workshop. Like @Jonkou , I would like to stay healthy enough to enjoy woodworking for many years to come. Chuck

Immediate project is to get my Shop where I can actually do something in it, it's worse than @ripjack13 right now. Like @trc65 said, a Maloof rocker has been on there forever, the group build sounds like a great idea! We should at least all go to TN and take a class with Charles Brock. Also, I've wanted to do casting for some time now. Bought a setup this weekend so that's a thing for the near future.

Not to sound like a broken record, but a Maloof style rocker in curly __________! A wooden fly rod. A wooden fly reel, and a RC sailboat modeled after a cup contender. Among many other things!
