I am proud to announce the launch of my new YouTube channel, Steve’s Toolbox!
It’s a place where I share some of the projects I’ve been working on since I retired back in 2020, including furniture restoration, chair caning, upholstery, tiling my bathroom, and plenty of other things that catch my interest. Steve’s Toolbox is where I share the things that I do besides the Useless Information Podcast.
The channel launched with five videos. Each are described below. My plan is to release a new video every Sunday at 9 AM, so be sure to subscribe.
Thanks for taking a look!
