Friday, February 17th, What's on your Agenda this weekend?

I hope you got your valentine a nice gift and had a great time this past week. But here we are on another Friday and for some a long three day weekend. Plenty of time to work in some shop time, home improvement, and maybe a few HDL items.

I finished up four cutting boards last night as I get ready for the craft season to start. I also have cedar chest on my bench to finish the new skirt around the bottom. I think I am going to have to sand this whole chest down and put a new finish on it. I don't think I am going to be able to match what was there.

I picked up a 1/2" piece of plywood and I hope to get the templates and patterns for the knock down rocker from Allen cut out this weekend.

Also got a few new pen kits in and will try to get a few pen turned.

I also got out some cherry this week and will try to get some challenge coin holders made. If you haven't made any yet and you are looking for a project to work on this long weekend, check out John's instructions on the challenge coin holders and see if you can turn out a few of those.

So there are some projects for me and an idea for you to work on.

What are you doing this weekend in the shop, house, or yard?

Show us your projects as you are working on them and when you get them finished.

I know Wayne, sometimes we seem to be in such a hurry we put up with things not being just right for the sake of getting a job done. I meant to go through all of this the other night when I put the top back on and just didn't. Thankfully I didn't use the table saw and remembered it when I got to the shop Saturday morning. The funny thing was I was reading an article in the WoodCraft magazine on turning up your table saw earlier in the week.

Well here we are now starting another week. Well at least some of us. Some have a nice long three day weekend.

So how did you do on your weekend projects? Were you able to finish or are the still on the bench. I didn't get all that I wanted to done. I had to put up a large mirror in the down stairs bathroom and then change out the light fixture. That sorta pulled me out of the shoe for a bit. I guess I will try to finish up a few items tonight.

What about a project update or pictures of you latest project. I see that Susie got the bowl finished and posted. Wow it is nice. Let's see some other projects.

I finished these two projects up, and cut a nativity cross for a customer, just need to assemble it and put a finish on it.
