I created this Plaque/sign for my girlfriend for Christmas. (I used all ryobi tools and accessories when possible.) I rated it as intermediate because of the soldering of the pipe. (I'm a plumber by trade) The wood working aspects were very easy, just sanding/staining, drilling a couple holes to attach the handles. I used a small drill bit to pre-drill holes through the copper for the screws to go through nicely and hold it on to the wood tight. I stripped some wire, and simply wrapped it a few times around the handles, and then twisted another wire around it. All in all, a nice simple project to do in an afternoon. (probably waiting for the stain to dry was a large part of the time)
