Yes, very nice area.  It's funny what they call a hill in Indy.  I miss the mountains.

Shane is a hill in Indy similar to what a mountain in New Jersey might be? ;D Fred

 

[Administrator_JSVN]

Probably an accurate comparison, Fred

 

[Fred West]

Shane if so that is very, very sad. I grew up in Alaska for 13 of the first 14 years of my life and lived in Colorado for a couple of more years. All told I have lived in ten states and been in all 50. So, when I say mountains I actually mean mountains.  8) Fred

Poto, how old? I am sitting at 52 and 3 and 1/2 months approx. Fred

You don't have me beat by much, Fred. I'm turning 49. For the first time. Still don't look a day over 45

or 46.

Or 47 or so...

On the upside, I still have all my fingers.

And I might get to meet Eiji. That'll make my weekend!

Poto, I take back my last post. I would like to meet you green teeth and all. After all you are of age.  ;D 8) That would be so cool if you could meet Eiji. I hope that it happens and goes well. Fred

Dan Lyke, I'd like to see your bathroom vanity.

Rob, I'll get you pictures when I get a bit further along. Right now I've got a few cuts in some nice cherry that got put on hold when our el-cheapo dovetail jig slipped and mucked up a joint, and about half of the mold for the concrete top done. Maybe I can get the mold finished in amongst the other things...

I really looked into doing a concret countertop. I want to, but I figured if I poured it in place, it would make a mess every where. and really was unsure about casting it, then moving it. I was researching pigments and everything. Now I'm really interested in seing it.

We get a Bank Holiday on Monday, so its a holiday here in the UK as well.

I worked today as I ordered some bits for a job on Friday, but as usual they were late, so did the job today.

Will be wallpapering tommorow as the 'trouble and strife' requires it.

Monday a well earned day off...

I'm trying to fit windows into my shed unit that aren't quite fitting because of engineering changes and myself not staying on top of the situation. I think I've got on top of it now though.

On a brighter note, I got to use my brand new ts55......feck me, what a cut. I'm in awe of the quality of it so far. I just wish I could have afforded to get a ct22 at the same time....sweeping up blows.

So far, I got the new flooring down in my friends bathroom. It looks great. Today, I planed an 8 foot long red oak 4/4 down to 3/4 of an inch, then ripped them down to 2 inch strips for face frames for the vanity. I would of planed more, but the planer was acting up. For some reason the automatic infeed wasn't working, and I didn't want to risk ruining any boards. I also got to use my TS-55 to give me the initial strait edge before I ran it down the table saw. Tommorrow I plan on taking the family to a local theme/water park if the weather holds out. Here is a link to the park      http://www.holidayworld.com/  It is a great place to spend a day.
