3.31.2019

Jim worked in the woodshop today - he first drilled countersunk screw holes in the workbench so that when he uses flathead screws to attach the spars, everything will be flat.  If you look closely on the bottom piece, you can see a screw in place.


Then he brought over the newly-painted side of the bench and put it in place!  Looks so good!


He tested out a spar piece on top - fit perfectly and will be totally flat for the bench top.


Then we started loading up the wood rack!  If you look closely at the top of the above picture, you can see a little bit of the big stack of wood that has been taking up a big corner of the shop space.  Most of this wood made the trip from Ohio with us.

Jim sorted it out as I would bring pieces over, marking the type of wood on some for easier reference.


Continuing to load it up...


All done - looks like we have our own Home Depot lumber aisle!


With the wood off the floor and the floor swept, Jim was able to start putting some of his tools over in that area...  The shop looks amazing!


Jim got all the countersunk holes put in the other side...


The last job of the day was cleaning and painting all the spar pieces...


All the work leading up to today sure allowed for a big change in the woodshop!  It's starting to become more and more functional and organized.
