Busy day. First day of Spring Break, but didnt get much break.
Slept in till 7:15, at the coffee shop by about 8:30 to finish up a paper due before class tonight, and then to my wifes new shop space to build her some stuff for the new location. No pics, and not much to see yet, but the cashwrap will be *mostly* done tomorrow.
I spent several hours there and at HD as she changed her mind on the size of one of the sides...
Then my dumbbutt didnt think about the extra 1.5 of the 2x4 when doing the 'sides' of the piece, so I just finished up cutting off 3" off each board and had to trim another on the table saw.
Alright, so my garage stuff
-pumped up tires on my mountain bike, heading to the beach and want to take something to pedal around on. Not ridden in about a year, so excited about that.
-laser cut some pieces to create some storage and organization for my DA sander pads/sheets
while the laser machine was on, I started to batch up some UNCG wood coasters. Made a lot already (of different things, not just the G), more to go before the event at school. Might shift the image over a mm or two before I do too many more
Tonight during class I had an idea for my pegboard by the worktable.
I recently bought a pegboard organizer from HD...not really what I wanted once I got it home. Thankfully I can get that 10 bucks back as I didnt take label off.
But I had an idea using, mostly, stuff I already have.
Going to use two of the long, straight pegboard hooks (about 5") and connect one piece of wood to it (which will be pictured just below this). Then I'll place another pair of hooks - both of these I'll secure the wood to, by the way - and place a different piece of wood to it. Just using 5mm luan.
But the bottom piece will be solid, the top I'm going to cut some holes for the wood glue bottle, my pens, pencils, and sharpies, my box cutters, and more.
So far this is what I've got worked out - my drill is at wifes shop and I didnt want to mess with the drill press, so just marking things tonight
I dont have too much more I want to do with this first try. But being able to have a shelf for a few things that I use a lot, but need OFF my workbench, will be nice.
Worst case scenario is Im out two little pieces of wood and some time.
