ROCK ON!!!

That is a favorite 2 lines from Thomas. I can almost hear him recite it on an LP my dad tracked down when I was a boy.

Well..I am not one to sit around, and do nothing....picked a 1 x 10 x 4' of that "Birdseye Pine"  today....and a new wheel for the grinder.  Might get busy clearing a spot fo the new drill til..and maybe add a few things to it.   Like a topper....with a drawer or two?  

IF anyone wants a "starter" Scrollsaw...stop by and pick it up..Craftsman (Emerson) 13" tilting table. uses 5" PINNED blades.....I don't really use it, nor really need it....just in my way. 

Once a friend returns from "Down-under", I can go out and buy/trade for some more Ash, or Maple....and see what else I can cobble up. 

Awaiting results from the latest blood tests..Thyroid level is about half of what it should be.   Sent the DVD of the MRI of the head over to Columbus, OH. to the brain doctor's office.  BP looking good, heart rhythm is steady as a rock...no AFIB going on.  Old Infantry Knees keeping me from too much walking or running around.  Too many "Klicks" on them, I guess. 

Well, maybe after supper, I may go to the shop, and see what sort of "trouble" I can get into

so who do you buy your wood from out there?

Just a friend of mine.   They are down visiting their Daughter and SIL in Sydney, AUS.   Be back here next month, I think.
Rolleyes    Has a woods around his house, and a friend with a bandsaw mill.
Cool   He harvests a tree, now and then.....then I can do a bit of trading, or buying...

There are a few Amish Sawmills in the area....4 within 10 miles of my house...sometimes, they will sell lumber to us "English" guys...

Winkgrin  Thyroid levels are back to normal....sugar level is a tad high, but not considered Diabetic..

April Monsoons have caused a small creek to run across the shop floor....will have to wait a few days, before I can do any shop work.  
No 

Kind of worn out, from all the road trips lately...
Rolleyes Might take a nap....

Maybe tomorrow, I can get into the shop, and the feet will stay dry
Confused   Might even make some sawdust, stay tuned

Don't let  your diagnosis get you down. Five years ago I was diagnosed with a rare auto immune condition called Devic's Disease. Nurse told me that I would more likely be totally blind and in a wheel chair by now. With proper treatment, I haven't lost a step and I even shot a hole-in-one a couple of years ago. And I'm only 44.

First, I had to clear away all the junk..

Move all the power toys to one end of the bench  
Rolleyes  
   

Then , install the til..

The top shelf I added to the til....soon filled right up..

Most of the shop's squares, and a marking gauge...there are a pair of spokeshaves there, too.

Have a nice supply of Pine left...may add a few things to the Drill til...

Waiting on a non-windy day to take this to the firepit...and hope there isn't any more tools in the mess..
Uhoh  
   
Already have had to rehab a spokeshave I found IN the firepit
Upset

Been out rust hunting, since the "season" has opened around here.
Cool   later, I may start on a box build, out of that 3/8" thick Pine I have.  
Confused
May post a separate thread on the box build, and a rehab of the spokeshave?
