7.15.2023

Jim got all his tools and equipment ready at the pavilion before lunch so that he could start right afterwards.  His sharpened bit worked well, so he continued boring the hole...


A check with the jig and it's done!


Putting up the jig again to mark the diagonal area...


Scoring the lines...


Doing the chisel work...


This one is all done!


Moving around to the front, Jim repositioned the front brace...


He put the jig in place for the front mortise...


Scoring the lines...


Using the chisel for the outside lines.  Jim is now working out of the bucket so he's at a more comfortable working height.


Boring out the hole...


More chisel work...


And more boring...


Until his jig shows it's perfect!


He moved the jig for the diagonal cuts and started scoring.  


I came inside at this point but Jim was able to get this mortise all completed before putting all the tools and equipment away and coming in to get ready for church.

High 83/Low 67.6
