Echoes of Wisdom

See you at the party, Richter!

Fun times. I’ve been trying to find a planter style/design I don’t hate enough to build recently. So far having a tough time finding the right inspiration.

Never before have I heard of what I would call herbs referred to as spice plants, but I love it. Congrats on the new family addition.

I absolutely agree, usually I go for the ganged up edge planing to get that complementary mating edge. Also if I were more than a hobby shop and doing things for money on a time budget, I’d probably think about buying some of that oh so expensive Festool stuff.

Unexpected Dr. Horrible.

I hear it can be a bit of a process. I’d recommend researching a fair amount before diving in. That said I’ve been waiting for the right project to do just that. Best of luck!

Supposing you can find enough of it affordably, you could veneer the whole top. To make it interesting you could try cutting it and applying it in a geometric pattern if that’s your thing.

Per the linked article “toward the southern part of the besieged territory”, which seems awfully vague for a major displacement of people.

Nice work.

No kidding. Hey I’ve got a great idea for a new marketplace, BeaNFT. You can waste your money but get an upcycled Beanie Baby in the process.

I’ve overdone garlic, specifically with garlic powder. It’s an interesting burning sensation, I don’t recommend it.

I facepalmed after realizing I’ve been lugging around that stupid

for the entire second act with it taking up inventory space.

Thank you for qualifying your source.

I’m glad to see those ears are properly aligned for maximum lift.

I’d play that.

Those two are always make for a great listen, they keep things pretty clean and fairly non-political.

“Where the Deer and the Antelope Play: The Pastoral Observations of One Ignorant American Who Loves to Walk Outside”

by Nick Offerman. If you like Nick’s humor, chances are you can enjoy this book. It’s easy enough to put down and pick up between chapters, which has been a benefit lately with my sporadicly available reading time of late.

That looks great.
