Jim continues to spend time in the mornings working on figuring out the timber frame connections for the pavilion...

In the shop, Jim used the drum sander for thinning out one of the drawer backs...

He's got pieces pretty well in shape for the 3 of the drawer sides...

Gluing wood for the last drawer side...

As well as the other drawer back piece...

He's also busy getting machines ready for the summer.  This is a shield from the Tiger Cub mower - 3 of the clips broke just from fatigue.  This mower is getting close to being 25 years old!  So Jim welded a couple back in place and had to make one piece that was missing...

Done - he'll give it a protective coat of paint tomorrow.  Just this piece was over $75 to buy it, so hopefully this extends its life a bit...
