Something Corporate was what I listened to occasionally as a missionary in Spain when I was super depressed. I haven't even thought of them in many years.

I got my proof back. I like it.

A good lawn in the spring is achieved by preparation in the fall. You did good in the fall so just mow it when it needs to be mowed. If you felt like it you could run test cycles of your sprinkler systems and adjust as needed. I seem to always find a few heads that have moved over the...

Role models maybe?

I ordered one. The text is about 2" wide then I have a little square graphic that is 3/4". I should get a proof here tomorrow to see what I think about the size. I read for burning you want text to be at least .20" tall. I'm not sure what mine will end up at yet. It's just my name in the...

I've seen where people have DIY'ed a brand. Print your "logo" reversed out on paper, glue paper to an aluminum or brass billet, carve away everything thats not the printed image and thats it after you drill and tap for a handle. I started to go through the list of things I'd need to buy to be...

I tried a wood burner at a class I did last week and wasn't super happy with how it turned out. I just did pencil with my last name and the year for this one and then put a raw linseed oil and beeswax finish on it. I'm not real concerned if it comes off down the road but wouldn't mind if it...

I've been working on this bowl a little each night this week. A kid in my ward is getting married today so I was trying to get it done for the reception tonight. Its cherry and should darken up real nice with some time. I bought a few bowl blanks that were already dry so I could have a few...

Sam's mother is the enabler in this household. Their preferred flavor is the "cars" branded ones so they have names I can't ever remember. And there are many duplicates. For a while I thought they were given away as door prizes at target.... I think there are 7 Lighting McQueens underfoot.

I've got most of a 24x24x0.5 piece of sheetrock left and would be happy to drop it off Tuesday.

What is the deadline you are working towards for this build? I know nothing about competition and assume that you're building this for those? Is your drivetrain all running or will that take a bunch of work when you get there too? Just curious.

What's your address?

So I guess I'll share some of the bowls that I've made. To be fair though I've only finished a few of them, most are either drying or they are/were firewood. The first two were finished turned green and as they dried they warped into ovals which is normal. They are made from box elder...

Yeah but his dad is nuts so there is that. My 7 year old won't even ride his bike off the curb, he stands up and walks over the ledge 🙄

The seat I have for my 2 year old is too small for him (he's kind of a beast) so I was thinking about this more in the fall. That Mac looks pretty cool. I bet he'd love that. He rides the strider pretty good but I do like to go for longer rides around the neighborhood and he's always enjoyed...

I've never heard of Ian, didn't see mention of woodturning on his website either but I'll keep an eye out.

Honestly turning has been pretty huge for me because I can actually accomplish something in an hour or whatever rather than having projects take months or years. I had to chuckle while reading your comment yesterday about building those food storage shelves so you could point to something else...

I finished wiring up a new 220 outlet for my new to me wood lathe. The power cable was on the opposite side of the lathe so I had to stretch it tighter than I wanted and the cable was in the way. The best part of the whole thing is I had everything I needed except for the box cover plate so I...

My brother asked me and my wife last week to care for their kids should anything happen to him and his wife. The hard part is he has a big tumor (non cancerous) on his pituitary. He had surgery on it last year but it's grown back bigger than before and it's causing him vision issues and a mess...

Trail clearing with a chainsaw would be very fun.
