Flux capacitor... so we can check out the future and see if it's even going to be worth it to be alive.

A wooden knife. Such as this one. I've made them before and it's very enjoyable.

Build a canoe. My brother is currently in the process of building. Incredibly time consuming, but so cool.

You could build an Adirondack Chair. A little tricky, but really comfortable! you could also try building a beer pong table!

Just do what every other kid does in wood shop class and build your own longboard deck. Spend all semester on it add your trucks and wheels then step on it for the first time and watch it snap in half.

A skate Mini Ramp, depending on materials available. Make its so i can be easily broken and reconstructed then sell it and buy a load of new ski gear. Or alternatively a ski rack that can be used also as a ski waxing/ repairing work bench.

I built on for my garage, it's nothing fancy, but I took a 2x10 and cut out slots for my skis to fit in when they're together. I mounted the 2x10 horizontally and and the skis sit in vertically resting on their bindings. There is a peg that sticks out on the end for poles

I saw one in Abma's house that had two 2x10s mounted vertically about 4ft apart with slots and the skis sit in horizontally.

I'm sure with all he time and materials you could spruce it up nicely

My friend recently posted some giant wooden dice he made for outdoor yahtzee. I guess they would be pretty easy to make but he made them look really cool by torching them and stuff (don't know what to call it? burning it?)
