Celebrating the Work: A Labor Day Pattern from Steve Good
Labor Day is more than the unofficial end of summer. It is a day set aside to recognize the people whose work has built our communities, supported our families, and kept our country moving forward.
That celebration feels especially fitting in a workshop. Makers understand the time, skill, and steady effort behind something made well. Steve Good captured that spirit in this layered Labor Day project, featuring a waving American flag, working hands and tools, and a bold tribute to the American worker.
The pattern is designed for 1/4-inch-thick material and can be finished in patriotic colors like Steve’s example or adapted to fit your own style.

Think Safety
Remember to keep the safety of yourself and others in your work shop in your thoughts at all times. Always wear eye and ear protection. Follow all the manufactures warnings that came with your power tools. If I demonstrate something on this web site that you don't feel is safe, don't do it. Your safety is your responsibility. Fingers are handy things, try to keep all of them.
