Alright, folks, gather ’round. Today, I’m gonna walk you through my little adventure with something I’m calling the “Craig Stammen Classic.” Now, I’m no pro, just a guy who likes to tinker, so bear with me if this ain’t perfect.

Getting Started
First things first, I needed to get my hands dirty. So, I gathered all my materials. Think of it like prepping for a good ol’ fashioned BBQ – you gotta have everything ready before you fire up the grill.
- I grabbed some scrap wood I had lying around.
- I dusted off my trusty old saw – nothing fancy, just gets the job done.
- I found some screws and nails.
- I laid out a basic plan, It was more of a “feeling” than a blueprint.
The Messy Middle
This is where things got interesting, and by interesting, I mean messy. I started cutting the wood, trying to follow my “plan.” Let’s just say there were a few… adjustments along the way. A few pieces ended up shorter than I intended, but hey, that’s part of the fun, right?
Then came the assembly. I hammered and screwed things together, making it up as I went along. There were a couple of moments where I thought the whole thing was gonna fall apart, but I persisted. I just kept at it, one piece at a time.
The Big Reveal (Kinda)
After a good bit of sweat and maybe a few choice words, I finally stood back and looked at what I had made. It wasn’t pretty, not by a long shot. It was a little lopsided, a little rough around the edges, but you know what? It was mine. I created with my own two hands.

And that’s the “Craig Stammen Classic” in a nutshell. It’s not about perfection; it’s about the process, the learning, and the satisfaction of building something, even if it’s a little… unique. I am feeling great!
It is all I have done.
