Description
This wooden hand saw plaque puts a cheeky line on the shelf for the dad who reaches for the toolbox before the instructions. Chunky black cut-out letters spell DAD along the top edge, rising above a white saw that runs beneath them, and the blade carries the words CAN'T FIX STUPID in black typewriter-style lettering, finished with a black handle at one end and a row of teeth along the bottom. Together the letters and blade read DAD CAN'T FIX STUPID, a joke any household handyman will recognise. It measures 17.5cm wide, 10cm tall and 2cm deep, a compact size that sits beside frames and keepsakes without crowding them.
We see it as a natural Father's Day gift, the sort of present that gets a laugh when the wrapping comes off and earns a permanent spot. It suits the dad who keeps a full toolbox, fixes the wobbly shelf himself and has opinions about how everyone else does it. Stand it on a workbench, a study shelf, a mantelpiece or the desk at work, where the black and white design looks crisp against wood, paint or brick. At just 10cm tall and 2cm deep, it sits happily on a narrow ledge or windowsill where bigger pieces would not fit.
The plaque is made of wood, cut into the shape of a saw with the letters fixed along its top edge, and it stands upright on its lower edge, so it needs no nails, hooks or holes in the wall. The back is plain white, with the reverse of the letters showing in black. Dust it with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp, as with any wooden piece. Tuck it into a gift bag with a card for Father's Day, or add a bar of his favourite chocolate for a present that says thanks with a grin.
