Glad to see you are on the mend Mark. That sounds like some serious stuff there..... |
Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
This is all good in the end but right now I'm sorry to see you go through it. Day by day and I hope all goes smooth for much better days ahead

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
That sounds like a pretty intense operation and a rough recovery, but a good investment for the future. I hope you are feeling better each day.
Plus a mean scar. Start working on your story for that ; ) |

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Indeed! I have some 1/4" curly maple pieces that I bought many years ago at a local hardware store. They were about 1/3 the price of wood boutiques like Rockler. One of my carving buddies wants to build a jewelry chest for his wife for xmas. He hasn't done a lot of woodworking, so it's going slowly, with me doing a lot of it. I'll post pics when it's done. Mahogany with a padauk insert in the lid. That piece got thinned and flattened in my "shop" yesterday. Even with the air filter and vacuum cleaner, there is red dust everywhere. I'll probably take the vehicles out of the driveway and run the leaf blower to get the rest of it out. We wore dust masks. I expect that it will come up on the toxic wood list about the time I die of the dust. ;) It's a beautiful piece of wood, in any event. The maple will likely be used for separators inside the jewelry box.

Did our annual Food & Toy Run today. Great weather, got up to about 50 degrees. Of all the pics my wife took, we love the one with the older couple sitting in their driveway. Notice the plugged in electric blanket! Awesome! :metal:

Broke my planer yesterday doing the backsplash . Dewalt 734 12 1/2 inch unit . Made in China . Ordered some new gears and blades real pain in the butt . Looks like crappy metallurgy to me . The gears just shattered with no load on them so to speak . The gears drive the feed rollers

You may be able to dodge the additional work. You'd be surprised how one day can be so much better than the last. Take care and heal fast. |

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
What I didn't do to my truck was finish buffing it. Not even close. Only got some of a fender and some of the front door. The thing about buffing a vehicle is that they always seem to get bigger and this ol gal was looking mighty long to me so I did the right thing and sat down and had a beer instead. It kinda looks two tone now. The original paint is shining up pretty decent except it's got that nasty sunburn on the rear fender. I'll get back on it today. Maybe I can make it to the bed. Probably not.
