Several days ago I mentioned a Maui job that I have. Nothing big but
more than nothing. ;~0
The 6 maple cabinet doors. Each 36" tall and range in width from 14.75"
to 17.74" A recess 1/2" wide and 5/16" deep in the back will receive
stained glass when back in Hawaii. Also "my" version of the Ron Polk
work bench was great to work on, seen in this picture. Pulled out and
set up in about 2 minutes. It is particularity sturdy although the lite
weight saw horses hardly look up to the task. I can literally hop up on
the bench and not a creek is heard. IIRC Nailshooter saw a 1/8"
deflection, in the middle with me on top, between the two halves over
the 8 foot length.

Close ups of the joinery. All of the joints are reinforced by a 5x30mm
Domino floating tenon. The tenon is centered in the thicker portion of
the joints.

And one last and really nothing special piece. One of my customers is a
big time quilter. She has one of those specialty sewing desks with a
remote controlled sewing machine lift. These faux wood desks are made
out of particle board with a plastic veneer covering. These desks are
also shockingly expensive as are their accessories.
Anyway she bought a new Pfaff sewing machine and the insert that fits
the machine like a glove was not available for her sewing desk. Not
totally unlike a TS zero clearance insert in function.
So she called on me to make one. Oddly it only took me two trips to
measure and tweak the fit of the insert. I made it out of 1/2" Baltic
birch and routed a rabbet around the bottom perimeter to mate with the
similar lip on the sewing desk.
Typically this 1/4" x 12 ish x 24 ish accessory insert sells for an
additional $200.

Oh, and the purple insulation foam board cut offs in the back ground are
for the 8 foot x 7.75 foot quilt design wall that I just finished for my
wife's sewing studio. I would show a picture of that but it only looks
like a piece of white material, of the same dimensions, hanging on the wall.
