Don’t thank me thank your recruiter....😁 At least that’s what I’ve been told most of my adult life. That recruit also got me round trip tickets to foreign countries ever other year. 

Happy Birthday, Keith, Hope it is a good one.

Don't forget the cool pictures you got to send home to Mother!

 

Truth in advertising right there. I lost my picture of s__t creek do not enter without paddle sign. We had this little stream (maybe more like tiny stream with standing water) on our cop that we renamed and made signage for. L Needless to say BRG was not happy with us when they dropped by unannounced. Oddly enough they were taking pictures of it while we were getting our asses chewed.

The site manager went nuclear over this stunt.

@Chips N Dust Happy Birthday, Kelly, Hope it was a good one. I havn't seen you lately on the forum,I hope everything is fine with you.

What's on my "bench" right now?

Just me tool belt....working off of sawhorses, too...

Takes two saws to cut stringers for stairs...

Just got in last night from being offshore for a week or so and found this on my workbench........

 

 

Apparently, my wife went to an estate sale where the deceased was "some kind of woodworker". 

 

Guess she was thinking of you while you were gone. Quite a collection of markers.

Gee, the last time I was gone for a while, all my wife had for me were some chores. AKA Honeydos.

Looks like the deceased may have been a barrel or keg maker. It also looks like each of those markers had an individually specific task. 

Nice new Jorgies, too. Nice score on it all.

Some are definitely task specific.   I'm just not sure what task.  Several  Marples markers, a Stanley 102 and half a Stanley 102, couple of panel saws, and a Veritas variable burnisher.

Now, I guess, I need to build some marking gauge storage.

Bummer.   I've got some open storage space in a tool cabinet if you need help. 

 

What's on my bench? Our dog.

You better check.   Looks like it's disintegrating.

He's been in our shop for so long, he's peeing wood shavings!

Has he been "de-barked"?
