Hey Everybody, John Here:

Well I have 6 weeks until my daughter graduates high school and I am in the home stretch to see if I can finish her present.  You can check out my previous posts here and here to see where I started.  When I left off I had made the cuts to put the case together and since then I added the decorative plugs to all the pieces. read more

Two weekends in a row and I found time to work on my project.  How did that happen?  Who knows?  All I know is that I was able to make some progress on my project!  I have to remember when I am doing this to enjoy the process and not focus on the outcome.  If I do the little things right and take my time along the way, the finished project turns out much, much better.  I wonder if I’ll have time tomorrow? read more

Well my youngest daughter is graduating high school and she asked me, in the way only a youngest daughter can ask, if I was going to make her a graduation present like I did for her 2 older sisters.  Well what would you say?  Of course, I said.  It’s funny how the excitement of a new project can make you forget that you already have what seems like a million things to do.  So here goes.  I’m going to make her a dressing mirror (I hope).  The good thing about being the youngest is that Dad’s woodworking skills are better than they were for the oldest daughter and her present should be better.  Will it be better?  Lets just say it’s a fine line between success and firewood.  I will try to post my progress, and keep all my fingers attached to my hands (my wife hates it when I make jokes like that). read more
