The Festool Way

[sancho57]

I dont post many of my projects, mainly because you guys do such good work here. Anyway here is build of a coat/shoe bench I made out of pirana pine. This is the 4th one I built, folks seem to really like them.

Binging the wood home in the wifes car, I got the wood out and car cleaned before momma came home to give me the business  [big grin]

Rounding over and sanding the edges, I used the largest round over bit I could find at the time and the 400 sander with a contour pad really smooths out the round over and the 150 for sanding the sides

Very Nice. I enjoyed the build progression. The display of the stars and stripes in such a way is another matter.

Charlie, About the flag, A little background,

I hung that flag in front of my house after 911. Stayed there for quite a while. Started getting faded and torn.
Ive had it with me ever since 911

After 5 tours in the sand box , 3 in Iraq and 2 in AFG I still kept it hung up. Even if it was in my garage / shop.

I moved to the UK in 2013, Ive been here about a year. That flag is going to stay with me hung up until we all come home.
It aient going no where.

Jobsworth,
A copy of the PM I sent you:

I should not have commented thus. Firstly, I don't want someone telling me what to put on the wall of my shop and I shouldn't do so to others. Sometimes it a faint line between deep, personal meaning and a casual disrespect. As I wasn't aware of the background I should not have commented about it. Now that I know the background; Much love Brother.

My comment stands on enjoying the build sequence.
