11.9.2021

Jim continued to do drawer work today - he has all the pieces sized and even cut the Formica for the drawer bottoms... 


He got the millwork done on the drawer pieces and got out his dovetailing equipment.  But then he realized that his new router won't work with his dovetailing machine.  He spent quite awhile trying to make it work but it needs an adapter for the adapter (hmm...).  It's ordered and will be here in a couple of days but Jim was a bit frustrated not being able to move forward on the drawers.


It was another gorgeous day so we headed back outside.  Jim wants to get the upper driveway grading in better shape so that he can get some gravel this fall.  So he started grading the side back farther while Mom and I watched....


Picking up giant rocks with the excavator.  After Jim dumped a full load, we picked up another bucketful of smaller rocks.


Definitely lots of rocks to content with...


But - wow - looks so good now!


Jim brought down a load of dirt to build up alongside the driveway...


Doing some hand grading...


It took 3 bucketsful of dirt as well as lots of hand grading but this part looks great!


After he got all his tools and equipment put away, he ran into town to get more diesel fuel.
