Concerts at the park

Santa Maria started something new this summer. The parks department now has a trailer with a built in stage and they give free concerts every Sunday all summer long. Yesterday was the last concert of the season. We just happened to be walking the dogs in the area and decided to stop and watch for a while. Not bad at all.

Makin' a Bathroom Cabinet


First cut the panels and glue em up. Can't have too many clamps when you're working with wood.


Carcass complete minus about half a lifetime of sanding. This is only the bottom half. It will eventually make it all the way to the ceiling.


Recessed panel drawer fronts. May end up doing these over. They look ok, but not quite what I had in mind.


Dovetail jig set up for a trial run.


It would probably fit better if the boards weren't warped


Not too bad for an amacha.

Reaching deep into my pockets.......



I pulled out enough money to purchase this pair of LED "Headlights". Yes, that's right, I carry that kind of money on my person. $1.00 and got some change back (a penny). Of course, I had to spend that penny and 798 more for shipping from Hong Kong.

If these things are bright enough, I may use them for headlights on the Sporty. If not, then maybe turn signals or somethin'.
