What did you accomplish today?

Sorry you have experienced this loss.

Was this friend aware of the risk?
How accomplished were they at woodworking?

Was it a first attempt for this tequnique?

So many questions.

If it was a homemade unit is what I would like to know.

It is one of those things that look easy and probably is......but feeling safe and actually being safe is totally different.

Did the grocery shopping, $430+. Stupid place didn't even have refried beans, for the second time.

Working on another cabinet for the grass valley job. This one will recess into an opening I framed a few weeks ago. Hope it fits, ha!

I'm guessing here from knowing the guy for so long but it was probably his first time trying it and it was definitely homemade. And yeah he knew the risk from losing another high-school classmate a couple years earlier the same way.

What I accomplished today…bucking, a whole lot of bucking.

Nothing like an ice coffee to keep a guy going. It was a long day, but now I can focus on doors and shelving tomorrow.

Ate a peanut butter and golden syrup sandwich that hit just right.
Also busy building my new PC and preparing the installation flash drive.

Posting from my new computer.... Fucking thing is so colourful with all the lights, Christmas I'm just putting tinsel on it and fuck the tree.

Some of this poplar gets a dark purple to it. I like how it contrasted with the lighter colored sap wood on the opposite piece. Just a card scraper took care of the glue up. If you've ever cut yourself on an unsuspecting piece of metal, you can under stand how a card scraper can cut through wood, very cleanly I might add.

I get a lot of time to think in the shop. There are a lot of assholes in the world. Maybe I deal with more than the average person. Maybe I'm less tolerant of them. But If the meaning to life is to go around seeking out these assholes and letting them know it, I figure I'm doing pretty good at it. "No thanks asshole, I can read". I guess we're all assholes in our own respect, myself included. In which case the world really is just a bunch of assholes going around letting each other know, sometimes in less subtle ways, how we feel about each other.

I drove to North Carolina yesterday dropped a puppy off drove straight back took a detour went over the blue ridge parkway to see some views only got two puppies left to go.

Groovy man, we use the same cloner. Did you change pumps? The one mine came with heats the water up to between 85°-95°, so I ended up keeping the rez in tuffy bin water bath that I add ice bottles to once or twice a day while cloning. Keeps my water temps in the low - mid 70's.
