Popular Post John Morris Posted March 18, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 Good Monday Morning! Good Monday morning Patriot Woodworkers! What did you get done over the weekend, and what have you planned for the week ahead! Inquiring minds want to know. Please tell us what's happening in your shops, your life, and any events going on with you. Thank you for being here folks! Theme News As many of you know by now, our theme or appearance looks quite different right now, what you are seeing is the default theme for our software without customization. Since our upgrade and after upgrading the custom theme to follow along, we were experiencing errors being thrown with each page visit by users of our community, creating a strain on our network. I am working on this issue within my spare time, unfortunately now that the new work week has begun we are more than likely going to have to use this default theme until the weekend comes along again and I can sit down and dig in. Thank you all for your patience.

Thank you all for your patience. The site works. We''ll manage fine...don't let it keep you up at nights. Shucks, I even used to like this layout...Besides I don't look like I used to either regardless how many weekends somebody tries to repair me.

Grandpadave52 Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 In recovery mode today. It became obvious about 3AM, my exemption of the intestinal plague that invaded the house a week ago had expired. Surprisingly, besides some water, coffee seems to be successfully retained thus far. Remainder of the week, the only thing I have been informed of thus far is the Pinewood Derby Friday night. No doubt other items will be communicated on a need-to-know basis...when I need to know, they'll tell me. May get some garage time as we could see mid 50's for a few days...fresh air will be nice.

Popular Post Gene Howe Posted March 18, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 We left Tucson at 06:00. Stopped for a couple breakfast burritos at our favorite mom and pop place about 50 mi. North of Tucson. Then, on to Snowflake and, stopped for a few groceries and, got home a little before noon. Nice, leisurely drive. Looking fwd to left over corned beef on rye tonight. Tomorrow will find me immersed in more Inkscape and g code. Our sons and their families liked the burned family tree thing. So, after correcting the spelling of our DIL's name... and, learning how to speed up the burn, I'll get a couple more made. Then, it's on to the whisky logos. The next week or so will be all (?something?) and elbows. Dadio, Harry Brink, FlGatorwood and 2 others 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Charles Nicholls Posted March 18, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 Got a few things done this week(end) lol. A few Sierra style pens, and a keychain pill carrier (sold). The pill carrier/case is made with Amboyna burl. Pens are, shredded money, rosewood, Cocobolo, and one I'm not sure of. 😊 Dadio, FlGatorwood, Stick486 and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Dudelston Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 The bed is r3sting for the week since I’m heading to Alabama for a few days to see my brother. Unfortunately, my customary trip to Moodyville, AKA Florence, isn’t in the cards. I have my sister as a third traveling companion. I do believe John and I might be see in Indy in April together at the NRA convention. Cal, FlGatorwood, Grandpadave52 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1fizgig Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 Good morning from Tuesday! And thanks for the warm welcome I've received. Not much happening in my shop currently, although I suspect I may take some time to make my router table fence in the next day or so. The I can really test out using the table. Not confident enough to use the locating pin as yet, so haven't done anything with the table since building it. Oh, and beginning to plan the coffee table and sideboard my wife has requested.

Gunny Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 Minor project after I got done repairing the car yesterday. Had to run a new DC leg to the new bandsaw. Finally ahead of the curve on the DC thing. All equipment that can have it does have it. Been lacking on this for long time. Couple days before finish is ready and can install. In looking at this as I began I decided I could not let a 6 inch by 12 inch space go empty or worse become a black hole for stuff to disappear in. Now what I am going to put inside that nice space remains to be seen. Meanwhile outside projects to be looked into.

Popular Post FlGatorwood Posted March 19, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 (edited) But, Gene, you didn't offer any. Got the whole yard mowed, part of the widow's yard mowed. Now to trim the fence line. And, some missed weed eating. Will get back to my first dove tail work. Had to get new chisels. Sorry, HF. Yours is too rounded on the side. Back to house chores for a day or two. I did wonder what had happened to the format of the site. Thank you, John, for explaining. WB, that looks to be a hiding place for chargers.

Gerald Posted March 19, 2019 Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 (edited) Not much done on weekend . Had a turning club demo Saturday. One new club member brought some ash from Hugh tree and we raffled that and more off. Yesterday I started on the new club website and I think I got into more than I wanted to do, but when done ....WOW. Today finally got the new smoke detectors up. Went to the shop late and got two Beads Of Courage bowls hollowed. Boy it is getting much harder to keep up with myself than it used to be. And I am paying for it when finished. Ok Herb , are you ever stealing everyones thunder. Edited March 19, 2019 by Gerald Dadio, FlGatorwood, Cal and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
