Here. One call today then I need to find a giant box to ship a tool box to TN for BIL. Work on more jigs today.

Edit: jointer jig was pretty good yesterday, but still a bit off. These are 2 standard 2*4s. Warped to fuck, but still flush outside of the warped areas. There is a slight angle though. With some mild sanding, these would be totally smooth.

good morning.

 

[eric strt6]

I do detect a distinct lack of motivation to get my shit together this morning. Espresso has not changed that. maybe food will.

Watching the furballs wrestle with each other. I feel like joining in and saying FU human world.

I can't believe that I have now worked for the same company for 14 years

what it do, monkeys?

Hi, friends! LOL! I went to the track before sunrise and ran circles for five miles, then stopped at Harbucks for my five shot Americano.

I've got our division holiday virtual luncheon tomorrow too. Since they usually do this at a country club at the cost of about $35 a head, we've all been told to go spend $35 on food and expense it. Could be a restaurant, grocery store, Costco, wherever. That is much better than having to attend an actual luncheon!!

 

[jonKranked]

five shot Americano.

do they ever give you funny looks when you order?

 

[Nick]

do they ever give you funny looks when you order?

It's because they think he's the neighborhood "break & enter butthole tickler", but can't be sure.

 

[I Are Baboon]

do they ever give you funny looks when you order?

Not at Starbuck's, which is why I go there. They are used to it. I also order on the app. But I get weird looks when I go to independent coffee shops.

 

[Full Trucker]

Ordered a skateboard this morning.

I am l'excité. I am also ordering G-Form knee and elbow pads, which will be used for both skateboarding and mountain biking. Because I am l'ancien.

tool box to TN for BIL

I thought your BIL in TN was a tool box. Or am I thinking of someone else?

 

[Toshi]

Hello all. Working 2-10 PM today.

Before then have planned out a Peloton ride, a quick trip out to Costco in Arvada, and then have an hour long boring Zoom (where I'm ostensibly the co-chair so have to show up).

Sounds like you're ready to enter the exciting, and also quite boring and frustrating world of handplanes.

But honestly, a couple swipes with a plane will fix that joint more accurately than sanding ever will, and faster.

Same person.

Ugh. I might just ask my dad to send me his old ones. Will probably be cheaper than buying new ones.

See what he's got, old Stanley, Record, Marples are good shit, and can be made even better with new Hock or Veritas irons, sorta-old 1970s stuff may be more frustrating than it's worth. The good quality new planes are night and day better than the older stuff, but they are damn expensive.

Unless he's sanded it first, in which he'll dull the plane blade.

i have an older version of this and find it easier to use (although less precise) than a hand plane. can cover a larger area in a single pass as well.

I'd love a good bench plane. Not sure how much I'd actually use it, but man is it satisfying making thin, continuous paper thin curls of wood.

Watching the Japanese work with planes is oddly mesmerizing.
