    successfully off the road long before the traffic clusterfrick kicks into high gear once again. Picked up 12 gallons of MOV gas from a small airport close to my customers site. $4.30 a gallon....ouch.

    Forgot I wanted to vacuum the cat and clean the glass before throwing a load of defective pine in and refiring the stove. :headbang:This stuff just doesnt burn hot for some reason. After an hour with the air wide open, its only at 300F STT, and thats probably thanks for the two maple splits I threw in with it. When I first started burning this stuff, I thought it was me being new with the stove, but nope....its definitely the wood!

    Getting the plastic up to enclose the porch a little at a time. It’s not too cold out but there is a cold breeze. And it gets cold after a while on the hands. Easier to work putting this stuff up without gloves on. So about every 20 minutes I take a break and come down cellar and warm up the hands next to the Wood Gun boiler. :fire:

    This makes me so glad that my enclosed porch has like 175 sliding glass doors on it! 90 seconds and I am done....previous owners ate that expense.

    Sometimes, you're a little too honest. Just a little!

    Too funny!

    Motivation #4

    The joint. I’ve made better looking but that’s not the goal this time. She’s gonna be strong.

    Nope not this one doesn’t budge after it’s anchored to the wall and floor. It won’t move anywhere after that.

    It doesn’t flex at all now and I have one more center support to put in it yet .:D

    I rarely use them in furniture so what do I know. :rofl: :lol:

    The corners are really there just to pull the frame into square on the top and bottom. The perks of economy lumber.. o_O:picard:
