2.22.2022

 

Where were you at 2:22 today?  Okay, so I missed looking at that but we'll still celebrate the uniqueness of this date!  We're having Taco Tuesday as well just to complete the celebration.

Jim started gluing the pieces of wood together to make one board that he will use to cut the desk leg pieces from...

Glued and drying...

Sanding the primed door panels...

A coat oof gray on the edges of the panels...

After that side dried, he was able to get the other side painted as well...

Then it was time for one of those necessary evils - machine and tool maintenance.  He took apart his jointer because the blades had nicks in it which you can see if you can look closely...

He also had to clean all the pitch of these jointer parts...

He went down to his grinder and got it set up to sharpen the blades...

Sharpening...

He has 3 sets of these jointer blades - they are all sharpened now...

While he had everything out, he is sharpening all the chipper blades too - just a bit of difference between before and after!

Nine jointer blades and ten chipper blades later, Jim is done sharpening.  With the time he has left, he's starting to reassemble the jointer...
