January 6Jan 6 Popular Post Working on a small tool chest for luthier specific tools. One corner down ,three more to go.
January 6Jan 6 Popular Post Work on the additional storage cabinet continues (sanding, edge banding). My supervisor said this was enough for today. Need to work on the door. Had hoped to get to that but shop organization took too much of my time as needed to prepare for minisplit installation later this week. Edited January 6Jan 6 by BB1

January 8Jan 8 Popular Post Finish applied outside as it was warmer than in the shop. Supervisor was distracted by a squirrel in the tree. Didn't have enough of the maple I milled for the door, so just put the box in place for now. Hope to get more wood so I can finish this...soon!

Nice here late today, but not near that nice. Looks great so far. Supervisor was distracted by a squirrel in the tree. I often suffer from the same disorder😆
