Happy Veteran's Day to all those who have served our country so that we can enjoy all the freedoms that we do - especially to Jim (Air Force), my dad (Air Force) and Jim's dad (Merchant Marines).

It was an inside day because we were forecast to get rain from the storm Nicole working its way northeast.  Jim wanted to do some tile cutting today for the shop bathroom because he needs his work table back.  He got the tiles laid on his template and then we realized we don't have enough tile.  So it will be off to Home Depot tomorrow.

Jim continued working on the package box today, which required him to mark and then take off all the spars...

Fastening the bottom to the frame - he used totally flat head screws in the front so that the packages will slide easily...

Cutting a piece of steel that he will use as a sort of door frame so that he can attach the hinges...

It was just a tad too long so he was able to cut just these slivers off using his steel bandsaw...

Showing me how the piece will fit on the side...

Then he had to drill and tap each of these holes to fasten the piece to the existing frame...

High 63.2/Low 47.1 - rain in PM
