My Dad is a member of a K-9 Search and Rescue team. Wants to use this boat to train the dogs how to0 search AND stay in the boat. All the covers were made of plywood that was never sealed up so they were done. Replaced all wood pieces with new stuff, all PT lumber and all edges sealed, primed then 2 coats of oil based paint. Hinges are either aluminum or stainless steel. One came with boat the other Dad had in his collection. Every bolt, washer, and nut has been painted and the screws are all stainless steel. Dad is rather particular about that. Came out pretty good. A 1st

This project started last spring when I had my neighbor cut this Silver Maple down. In August of 1999 I build this 10x12 building with a 10x11 deck. In the middle of the deck was a tree. And I thought hey that will look great and be so cool. Fast forward to 18 years more of growth and the tree is winning the battle against the deck. Roots pushing on posts, circumference of the tree is now 26 inches and I have cut rafters underneath 7 times to accommodate the tree. Frankly my great idea had a limited lifetime. So I took the deck apart, posts and all and down

So, as long as the Dizzies stay away, I might get something started? The old bandsaw. Been sitting around, taking up space, not earning it's keep. Decided to move the old saw over to the bench, and clean it up. Yeah, THAT one. Bought it used at a garage sale back in the late 1980s. Used the heck out of it, in fact. More than got my $90 worth...but...I think I can get it running again. Having sat around a few years, it was a bit FULL of dust and crud.

Well, it is getting close to that date. Time to lighten the tool box at work, to make it easier to cart out when I do retire. Two items came home this time. A 12oz ball peanhammer i never used. Red headed, LONG handled, might be a Plumb, or a Buckeye brand. Then there was a hacksaw. Black plastic pistol grip. Someone had painted the metal parts a silver colour. At least it didn't rust, that way. Thought I would clean it up, to see what this thing really was And a close up of the handle. Looks like there was a place for a label? Fired up the drill press with the wire

Not sure IF this is woodworking related, but here goes. From the Meet & Greet in the Dungeon Shop, three planes were traded for three others. I get a few "woodies" to work on A-yup. Since the one in the middle already had it's iron resharpened in a class at the show, decided to refurb the rest of it. Wire wheels in the drill press to clean the dirt and rust off, trying the get back to bare metal. Had a small jar of Dupli-colour Black, the kind you brush on to stone chips in a car's paint job. Painted the Sargent Lever cap, and set it aside And, you can see what else nee
