Drawer fronts

I love the way my new drawer fronts make it look like I know what I’m doing, and i especially like that I am actually making something again. My motivation is back to produce things but for now they’ll be the rest of the drawer fronts and then make the router table the same height […]

Carried away

Spent me morning talking to R Kid waiting for church to finish so he could donate 7 boxes of craft supplies amassed by Karen over the years that are sadly no longer needed. My afternoon was spent making a drawer front and a French cleat storage bracket for my Kreg Pocket hole jig. I got […]

Suction overload

Having extended my shed creating lots more room I finally got the last piece of Trev’s kit in and ready to use. Although I setup the Axminster Craft AC118CI Cyclone Interceptor up and successfully used it earlier this week, today I bought some jubilee clips to secure all the connections and set about making it […]

Second ammendment not right

I, along with most of the world it seems, including  Reagan and Lincoln sadly, have just watched Right-Wing activist Charlie Kirk murdered in public, which was visually horrific and shocking to see but in todays society things like this will be filmed and, as this was, shared on social media for all to see.

Titans week 1

Ugly game but the defence were there to dig the team out of every hole they dug, and they were abley aided by numerous penalties by the Titans. So excited to get football back and see a Broncos WIN 12 – 20

Proud of the missionaries

My family are so enthusiastic about church right now they all love church and I think it’s all down to Mom and I love supporting all of them. I sat there this morning listening to what they all got up to in Hugary on their mission trip and it made me feel proud of all […]

Best tool I own

Spent the whole day fitting out the inside of my shed extension, the delivery of 2 x 9mm plywood sheets and a sheet of 50mm foil backed insulation  meant I could get cracking. 8 x 4 sheets used to be time consuming to rip down but having seen r kid use his track saw a […]

9/11 Docs

Always around this time of year I always watch documentaries about 9/11 and this year I watched a very interesting one called “The most important 9/11 documentary” A real-life documentary following the events of Sept. 11 from an insider’s view, through the lens of James Hanlon and two French filmmakers, Gédéon and Jules Naudet, who […]
