Popular Post John Morris Posted August 16, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 16, 2020 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! I had a semi productive time in the shop this weekend, got a good start on my Gun Range Shooting Bench for my son and I. We'll use it to shoot off of for sighting in, only spent a few hours on it, gluing the boards together, and getting some edges glued and nailed to the sides to help provide rigidity and to just give it a nice strong appearance. I'll install folding legs on it, and maybe a small drawer on the front for small "possibles and what not's". It was my dads 87th birthday on August 12th, but we drove up Sunday to his home in the mountains and visited, we brought up lunch, and we had a birthday cake for him, below is Dad with my wife, and my two kids, our other daughter is away in the Army, so she isn't seen in many of our most recent photos anymore . But Grandpa was happy, and he enjoyed his day. I also want to thank you all for the wonderful wishes you sent for the passing of my Army buddy, it's been a rough week last, his family has a long road ahead of them, I want to thank you all for your prayers.

Popular Post steven newman Posted August 17, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 Hmmm, the time of the week, again? Currently trying to save back a bit of cash...as the Labor Day Tractor Fest down in West Liberty, OH is coming up....I tend to go rusting hunting there....guess that was why last weekend's Rust Hunt budget was so low.... No Projects, right now. Been busy doing rehabs... Rusty, cheap saw.. And make it like new, again.. Things like that...

Popular Post kmealy Posted August 17, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 Went to the furniture bank this morning. 4 of us got sub-assemblies together for 12 dining tables and got 6 of them assembled by 11:00. We're stocked to the gills with 80 desk/bookcase assemblies from a local university so it was tight working space. Stopped on the way home to look at some estate sale tools, hoping to find something for the grandsons. Nothing of interest there.

FlGatorwood Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 John, thank you for placing this honor on my work and post. Again, I am humbled by the honor. I only hope it helps those who have questions regarding the issue. I hope it is sufficiently clear. Also, thank you for the historical link. I did not know or remember this. So, thanks for the link and info. Andrew, it is great to see how you have progressed. You are growing and it is great to see. I am trying to finish up a project that I started last month. Getting close. Cal, Larry Buskirk and Gunny 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
