3.22.2019

We woke up to not-quite spring weather today - about 2" of snow along with freezing rain.  Of course, I had an early morning doctor appointment, so Jim drove me to Saratoga.  He didn't even mind that I had some grocery errands to run!  (Best husband ever). The snow turned to rain in the afternoon but we are supposed to get more snow tonight.


Once we got back home, Jim got back to work on the parts for the workbench.  He drilled all the holes for button welds for the end tie pieces...


Starting to lay things out and get every squared up and clamped.  Plus he had a lot of work to do grinding all the surfaces that are to be welded.


Both tie pieces all welded onto the legs...

 The pretty front view!


Then it was time to start all over again and do the same for the other end piece...


Both ends are now done and up in the workshop!  This is how big the bench will be - it will be so great for Jim to have a big area to work on.  He started doing the cleaning process before hopefully painting tomorrow.


High 39/Low 26 - winter weather advisory; 2" of snow so far
