It's Friday! 3/2 Edition

[Jim O'Dell]

I'm off this weekend, but will pay dearly by having to work the next two.
I plan on spending some time in the shop. I have an assembly table I've started. Need to get the half laps in the plywood for the lower and upper support and maybe get all of that installed. Then in the next few weeks I need to get some MDF to build the torsion box top. We'll see how much I get done. Jim.

Oh I really like that term, "Reloading Bench." Why didn't I think of that. It is so appropriate. Maybe if you Glennize the bench, it won't reload!?!?

Tony and beautiful wife I wish you many tens more.

Yeah Carol!!!!!
Does the guy speak Router or Wood lathe?

I spent most of the day making sure the North wall of my shop meets electric code. I had some 15 amp outlets in boxes fed by AWG 12 on 20 amp breakers. Some Romex not stapled within 8 inches of the box. And in one case had to pull new wire because I didn't have enough slack to staple it by the boxes. Added a couple more outlet boxes for future tools. I sure like original wiring a lot more than rewiring. The electricity in the wall was safe as long as I was the one using it. I didn't mind because it was all open and exposed; but now it is going to be closed and out of sight.

As Glenn says, "Hey it is part of the hobby. Enjoy it."

Enjoy,

JimB

Glenn is coming later this month and we are going to insulate and then close the wall.

Friday, I prepped a few more components of my credenza for topcoating - will spray them Monday.

Today, I plan to spend some of my time on SketchUp - trying to get a couple more things figured out. LOML is having breakfast out with a neighbor lady before they do some yard sales. We're in for a bumpy day of weather with some storms moving our way.

Sunday will be the usual routine with me fixing brunch for us, then settling in for an afternoon of NASCAR. I'll probably whip up some stir-fry for dinner - got the steak strips marinating in some teriyaki and soy sauce already. Yum!

My mother in law was rushed to the hospital Friday morning. My wife and I along with her brothers and sisters spent the day by her side yesterday. Doesn't look too good. My father in law had a stroke about a month ago and is really upset. They have been married over 60 years. So I imagine that we will be at the hospital again today and tomorrow.

Very sorry to hear this Bob. I hope things work out for the best.

I'm doing a slight reorganization of the shop that I've been planning for a while to make more room and building a lumber rack in the shop and throwing all the shorts I haven't used in the past year in the burn barrel.

I've been working of a 4'x36'x10" raised bed. I think I'll be able to raise all the veggies we can use in this. I'm tired of providing a buffet for the coons and deer! I planted beans 3 times last year before I gave up, and my cucumbers were just about ready and the dang deer ate them all!
