Monthly Woodworking Roundup!
Another month in The Woodworking Shed has flown by!
These roundups are published on the last Friday of the month and cover all of the content published by The Woodworking Shed this month. I’ll also be including the occasional poll and announcement to get community feedback and keep you all updated!
At the end of these posts, you’ll also find my top picks from the Substack woodworking community this month!

The Woodworking Shed Got Featured!
You may have noticed this badge that has recently appeared at the bottom of my posts. At the end of May, The Woodworking Shed was selected to be a featured post on the Smallstack library.
This is the first time my writing has been recognised, and to be selected out of almost 2000 other writers, it’s a great personal achievement.
You can check out the Smallstack Library here or follow their Substack page here!

Making Even More Progress With the Shed Build
I’m closing out the month with more shed updates. This time I’m working on the cladding and dealing with a few issues... It’s amazing how quickly things seem to come together once you reach certain parts of a project!
That’s all for June! I hope you enjoyed the content. See you in July for another Roundup!

They are taking on a similar challenge! preaching the truth about buying tools. Perhaps we should all ask ourselves, “Do I need this or do I just want it? When we add to our toolkits! reminds us not to forget the small things like sharpening, practising skills, and organisation. These things can easily get sidelined in the heat of a project but can make us all better woodworkers!
