“Hey, it’s Friday, finally. My wonderful wife will be here for two full days after today, a new garden thread, two days with Gracie, and two nice days so I can make sawdust.”

I think you and I probably need a life as both you and I look forward to a new garden thread every Friday. That is our excitement for the week? Yes, we need a life.

You do have a wonderful wife. I hope you have a great time with her and that you make lots of sawdust. The dolly you made for my squash plant has helped me move that plant over and over.

It gives me great joy to be able to do something to help someone else.

I like the inter-action of the garden thread, and thats what I like about Youtube also. They both get me out of the house, so to speak.

I’ve got a small project in the shop making a workbench for mounting a saw that I bought a couple of weeks ago. When finished, I will be able to cut curves in wood, like S curves and circles and such. No more straight cuts only. Thinking of making an old school rounded mantel clock, but will decide that later.

LOL. How well I know that feeling. Used to be that way when Red_Devil was doing the thread. Every Thursday night, I’d think Yahoo garden thread tomorrow.

Still feel that way, thinking and wondering who will check in and what have they been doing. Especially look forward to colorful posts like yours Marcella.

I think it’s just a great opportunity to get out of the chatter box noise that goes on constantly and think about more simple stuff. A chance to forget about my impossible To Do list, and focus on friendly conversation for a while.

I got my project done and my new saw mounted and ready for a test.

Search for bandsaw boxes on your search engine “images” to see pictures of what some craftsman/artist turn out with this kind of saw.

Mine will be beginner level, though.
