Julie Christensen Beer and I paid our respects in 2023.

Hi there! I know that I haven't posted in a few months/years, lol, but with retirement from my career coming, I need to post more. Today, I upcycled a maple plywood table top from Work to make a basement gate that the cat can go under but not the 1y.o. "puppy" who recently decided that secret basement poops were acceptable. It was a project of engineering out of necessity.

FINALLY! The Beer has got BACK into woodworking!

I added framing in the trusses to get a dozen 1x10 oak boards off the floor and away from the doors. Another piece of countertop made a good shelf for shorter pieces. And then! I glued-up 3 shelves for an overdue project.

Phase 1:
After 12 years, it is time to begin renovating the backshop. There is no insulation to hold heat, if I had a source. There is no floor other than clay and lama manuer. There is no humidity control which ruins lumber and tools. So, I cleared 200ft² of the very cluttered room to prep and pour about 4 yards of concrete. I framed a rough opening for a window that I acquired from a high school. I'll use the opening for the concrete truck's shoot. Before I load-up the new concrete, I'll insulate the ceiling and walls with rigid insulation I have collected.
