March 4, 201511 yr Well, despite being dragged around in the van all day, did get a little something started. The Boss and her friend went shopping, I had to tag along in order to pick out a few boards @ Lowes..... Well, about $22 and change later This is what I found. A decent ( maybe) 2 x 4 x 8', 2 @ 1 x 6 x 8', and a couple cut-offs. The cut-offs were just laying on a lumber cart...."How much?" "#$0.25 each" "SOLD" They are about 1x8 by maybe 3' Plan ( do I really, ever use a "plan"?) is to cobble this pile of Pine down into a Shaker Style End Table, and hopefully add a drawer to it. Letting things get used to the house for now, Then maybe a cutting "list" can be thought out. Tapered legs? Or, fire up the lathe and turn them? Might have a left-over whate knob to use, too. Will be looking at what height to make this thing, how large a top to glue up. Have some 1x stock in the shop for Bread board edges. Might even have enough scraps for drawewr runners, too. Right now, the pine is "resting", and I think I will too. Stay tuned, New Yankee Workshop? NOT! Might take longer than 1/2 an hour.....
March 5, 201511 yr Took Norm longer than a half hour, that is just all you got to see. I'll be following along here at TPW instead of APT.
