Here's a clever little item that's perfect for holding any child's or adult's baseball, bat and glove. We talked to one flea market vendor who told us he sells these as fast as he can make them at around $20 a piece.
We built ours from pine with birch shaker pegs, but you could also make hem from oak, cherry or other, “higher-class” woods and sell them for even more money.
To make these, you'll need a scroll saw or bandsaw, a drill press (with 1/8" and 1/2" diameter bits), a pad sander and a drum sander.
To solve this problem, start by filing the top surface of your tool rest straight and true….eliminating all nicks and gouges along the way. Next, use a fairly coarse sharpening stone to slightly round-over the two back 90o corner edges that will be riding against the rest during cutting.
