No, that's a table I made and getting tested for actors to be able to dance on it.  I'm in several of the photos, though.

D2 of this week ended on a different note. Thankfully, no confirmed touchdown or damage in the area. God is good!

It's Wednesday. Granddaughter's HS graduation ceremony is tonight. Likely around 70 students will get their diplomas. It'll be a long night.

 I've lost my veneer saw, I've only had it for about 30+ years and was always able to keep it safe but I guess 2 moves of the shop and some time since i last veneered anything was more than the saw could take....so it jumped ship (or, I just lost it).

 

I'm happy to report that the Universe is still working as it always had. I ordered a new veneer saw and used it to get my veneering done. This morning I found my old veneer saw. Honestly, one of the last thing you'll even need 2 of is a veneer saw. At least the planets are all still aligned and things haven't been altered by some celestial event.

I'm coming out of"Infrastructure Week".

 

I rough planed about 400 palletwood boards last week so it was time to change the blades, and I acquired a heavy-duty drill press that needed a stand. I decided it was time to do a little shop maintenance. 

 

I replaced 2 cord ends.

replaced the cord to my miter saw

repaired 2 ROS that were out of balance

Assemble the stand and build an extension for the drill press table, allowing me to drill 1 13/16 holes in an Oak barrel stave for Votive Candles, and I'm still working on making centerline jigs that process.

And still had time to punch out 40 Tic-Tac-Toe boards using some of Eileen's tunbled River Glass as the playing pieces.

Today was my Double Share Local of CSA Beer pickup! Wooden Boxes for Beer it doesn't get any better than that.

Now, it's off to the basement shop to finish the centerline jigs
