Office Space Scroll Saw Challenge

[Travis]

Summer vacations are over.  Kids are back in school.  And that means back to work, too.  So this month's challenge is about the office.  Make something for your home office, or your workplace.  This can be anything office-like projects:  pencil holders, bill organizers, clipboards, headphone stands, trays or organizers, or a nameplate for your desk or wall.  Let your imagination run wild.  When you post a picture, tell us what you do for a living.  If you're retired, tell us what you used to do!  Woodworkers come from all walks of life.  It'll be fun to see what professions we all have or had.

How about a mess... I am pretty good at making that....

Heh.  I work in IT (desktop support...some remote support, mostly on-site IT work) for D. R. Horton (not "doctor"....we're a homebuilder).  I've decorated my desk with a lot of different patterns, some of them my own, some Steve Good.  Usually something IT-related, anti-Monday, coffee, or just plain snarky.  I'll get a pic of my desk area tomorrow, but here's some of the stuff I have up:

Not all in one day.  I don't have all that much space at home for "my" decorations (much less permission from TheWife to ...decorate...), so I take a lot of my stuff up to work with me.

I have the same thing with trying not to go to the shop and take away too much 'wife' time.

My desk at work.  Not visible (behind the cube wall from this point of view) are my "F-bomb",  "Meh", and "Death Before Decaf" signs (marked by arrows).  Didn't really realize how many projects I'd brought in until I started marking them down!  Also not visible (stuck in the cube windows across the way) are "Mondays Suck", "Nothing Ruins A Perfectly Good Weekend Like A Monday" and "When In Doubt, Reboot".  There's several other pieces I've made and given (or sold) to other people.

 

ETA:  I'll be making a magazine holder (or two) later this month to put my slowly growing collection of SSWW magazines, which will definitely involve scrolling, but hasn't been cut yet, in case that is what the original challenge wanted (something new, not something past-cut).

These Steve Good cell phone holders are popular with the folks I work with.  People love them.

[heppnerguy]

good idea and nice useful projects. I really enjoy making things for people as gifts. They always seem to be so appreciated.

Here are a few items that made it to the office.  I particularly like the Attitude is everything.   Some days it means something completely different than other days!  Doesn't define what type of attitude

My workshop is my office. I use plenty of painter's tape when I'm scrollsawing, so this little project will be very useful.
