Whilst Jaime and his Team have been slogging away in the sun, I have had the more comfortable job of continuing my woodwork indoors, which after the Pantry, came the Broom cupboard That done, Marcela is happy, she has all the space she needs in the house, I can now turn to the parts thatContinue reading “Woodwork”

Woodwork

It was only a simple project, but even so it was great to be working with wood again, albeit a couple of pieces of common pine. With no sign of Jaimie and his Team returning, I was worried about some of my timber, most of which had been placed on top of my workbench inContinue reading “Woodwork”

Keeping Occupied

Whilst we had no internet, I was forced to occupy my time by returning to the old ways, in my case woodwork!! 😊 It forced me to get the Postbox finished and fitted on the gate.

I haven\’t done much woodwork recently, so decided to get stuck in again, so the first thing I wanted to do, was to improve my tablesaw, and in doing so, it nearly ended up as scrap, as we all know \’ Measure twice, cut once\’! fortunately I was able to work around my mistake, soContinue reading “Back to the woodwork!”

Boring!

I seem to be posting everywhere at the moment, and forgot all about my own Blog… Shame on me! To be honest, what I have been posting, will not be of much interest, because it all relates to woodwork. I made a pair of push-sticks to use with the table-saw, at least now my fingersContinue reading “Boring!”

Life continues

Well…Yesterday was my appointment with the Back Specialist, he was a lovely Guy, it turns out that his hobby is also Woodwork, and he asked for an invitation to visit once we have bought a house and started up my workshop again! However as far as my back was concerned, he wasn\’t that helpful, tabletsContinue reading “Life continues”
