Yeah there are some around the place.
I went to Aachen recently, the cathedral of Charlemagne the Great, which is full of Christian reliquaries.
Random bits of wood which Jesus bashed into shape, and odd things like a naggy bit of rope called Mary's belt, and other scraps of junk.
But each of these silly "artifacts" is housed in an elaborate reliliquary, made of shining gold and silver, studded with gigantic gemstones, which would make a king's crown look stingy.
Its pretty hilarious really. Raggedy old rope or scrappy bit of wood housed in gigantic gold, gem-studded monstrosities!

No one knows what he was doing for those 17 missing years.
Church people don't want to get into it, so they just say he was a carpenter. Very unlikely though. The Aquarian Gospel (a free online book) gives a more believable explanation, and http://gospelenigma.com supports that different story with King James references. That second one gives a more realistic view of what was going on 2000 years ago.

You can clearly see the craftsmanship in the largest church (faith) in the world, which he literally built.
You have to remember, it only took him 3 years to accomplish all of this. He was so influential, that today you are taking your time to ask a question about him- nearly 2000 years after he was even on this earth.
I wish I could say the same about myself after my death.

Many associated Christ with being a carpenter but he was indeed the son of a carpenter. This was to represent humble beginnings, he wasn`t a lord or nobility.

Aside from the Sacred Humanity of Jesus, His finest craftsmanship is the creation of Mary, the perfect Mother of Jesus Christ and his greatest creature.
