30 Of The Most Impressive DIY Projects From Wood, Shared By This Online Group (New Pics)

It turns out that there are plenty of people who use knives other than just to cut the veggies in the kitchen. It takes a handy and creative person to master tools and the machines to turn a piece of wood into actual art and make it both decorative and functional at the same time.

People on the Woodworking subreddit seem to have grasped the art of carpentry – from cutting boards to entire wooden cabins. These craftsmen’s (or craftswomen’s) imagination, diligence, and attention to detail are seriously undervalued and must be showcased to as many as possible.

Scroll down below and look at how exquisite yet functional wooden art these Redditors have created. Feeling craftsy? Check out more woodworking posts here and here!
