Woodworking isolation

 I'm getting a bit tired of the isolation we have to do. It is opening up somewhat, but still a necessary evil. I am trying hard to use what wood, hardware, etc that I have in my shop without going to big box. This morning I was looking for a nice small piece of exotic hardwood. I know where I put it. I think I know where I put it, it's not where I put it. So I went thru the shop looking in places I don't normally look, that includes behind panels, dark corners and under benches. I did find a nice piece of Purple Heart and other things I knew I threw away:unsure: 

 So what did I accomplish...........The shop dirty hidden areas are now clean. As for the piece of wood I was looking for??  I think someone came in at midnight and got my piece of wood................or maybe someone may have used some time ago.:D

 

Just hangin in there

    Thanks for thinking of those guys, the high risk area is what I'm being lectured about by my wife, everyday. And so it goes:rolleyes:

    Reminds me of being stationed on a ship for months.  All around are gray skies, water and the home in which I live.  Made it for 2 years and I had no idea that I was practicing for retirement.  :D
