Switched out the old fluorescents in the shop for LEDs. Massive, massive difference. LED lighting truly one of the best technological, policy and environmental advancements of our age.

Old house with a sick built in for an old TV and speakers. Obsolete now in many ways but a gorgeous job for the era.

I don’t hate it! A little shimming goes a long way. Total run will be nine cabinets with a miter saw station and dust collection in between.

Doing another 8 foot run of these cabinets with a miter saw station under the window in the back. Will do another row of cleats, too, so storage should be locked after that.

First Cybertruck I’ve seen with a compelling paint job. That said this is exactly the color car I wanted when I was 13.

Had a half day off so got around to making the toddler his own table and chair set especially now that he’s revolting against various forms of high chair / booster seat.

This is leftover acacia countertop, trimmed 2x4s, pocket screws and glue finished with tung oil.
