Whether you’ve been following the “Jersey Woodworker” since 2008 or you’re just now getting your hands dirty, we have a seat at the workbench for you. Sawdust on the Floor has officially evolved, merging its deep technical roots with the vibrant project focus of Sawdust & Smiles.

Tradition Meets Innovation

We’ve taken the original 16 categories that defined this site for over a decade—from Makita Tool Reviews to Children’s Projects—and organized them into four specialized hubs to help you build better, faster, and with more joy:

• Woodworking Projects & Gift Plans: Explore our library of furniture guides, bathroom vanity builds, and our new specialty: small handcrafted gift plans with full cut lists.

• Tools, Gear & Reviews: Get honest, professional takes on power tools and workshop essentials, continuing our long-standing partnership with industry leaders like Rockler and Woodcraft.

• Tips, Techniques & Learning: From “Electricity Basics” to advanced finishing techniques, we’ve preserved the how-to guides that made us a trusted shop resource for years.

• The Maker’s Lifestyle: Discover articles on shop organization, home improvement, and thoughts on the evolving world of woodworking.

Take the Shop Anywhere

Don’t forget to sync with our new Sawdust & Smiles App (PWA). It’s our gift to the community, putting all these technical resources and project plans right in your pocket while you’re at the bench.
