Post-project Downtime?

[steven c newman]

The Boss has hinted she wants a new End Table....as the old one is getting a bit beat up....it was just Pallet Wood Oak. Waiting on some lumber, and more "directions" as to what kind of table she wants.


Leftovers? Small, fancy, Oak Boxes might be in order? Once other business is completed this week, I may start back up in the shop..

Finished up the sharpening on the old Jack plane. Still has a camber to it, back is flat, with a slight back bevel. Sharpened to 2,000 grit, then stropped. Also honed a couple chisels.

WR #62 to flatten the plane's sole, and clean the sides a bit. Wedge was cleaned up a bit, too.

Have been resawing some Oak scraps, lately. Have a couple 1/2" panels sitting in some clamps....waiting on the glue to cure.....Then I can size them to match each other....and size two solid end panels to match. Might even get a start on some frames for a Frame & Panel build....

Business of the past week has been concluded...

Old van has been traded off for this one. There goes the "Tool Budget" for the next few years.
