OT - What are you doing right now?

JohnInCarolina

Just went for a walk around Duke's campus with the wife.  Turned into a gorgeous day here.

Yeah well I miss him, he did help balance out the forum some.

I know.  We could use a few flat-Earthers here too, just to balance things out.

 I am not sure about that, but I do recall that he served his country in a way most of us haven't and he is a West Point graduate. Those are things I respect even though I don't know the guy personally.

Yes most should be respected

Not mine. Just trying on B-I-L’s new acquisition. 

Another data point as I recall your B-I-L lives in a high roller neighborhood and owns/drives some sweet rides as do his neighbors.  Better to be lucky than good any day.  
Stay healthy and safe out there-

Awful, terrible day. Hug your kids.

Sorry, have to wonder, not social distancing?

Oh, I am. Have been since March 2020. Have hardly seen anyone socially since that time - except in very limited circumstances and always as per any and all applicable municipal, provincial and federal health regs. No exceptions. None. We good?

Sorry to hear that. I hope it was work and not your family. I am sure that you did your best.

Why I hate using heart pine.  There no fire or smoke smell, just a strong pitch smell.  Wood is from an old house.

Good memory. Yes, his business has been doing very well. He’s looking at buying a place in Florida. Was showing me some very nice contenders this evening.

Can't wait to see your post on which ventilation system you bought over on the WAYBN thread.

That’s the one. Entirely my wife’s doing. The only modification is that I crumbled some Reese Peanut Butter Cups along with salted peanuts for some texture on the top. Be forewarned that this is a very rich cheesecake. As some of the reviewers have noted, it is very indulgent but is not overly sweet.

I actually cooked on that green ceramic thing 



Temp dialed in just the way I like

Finished up a sewing table.  Just need to let it dry and put the slab o granite on top.  Top of the honey-do list.  She makes masks as a public service.  Has made thousands.  This will improve the ergonomics of her operation.

Gave up trying to get all the nails out.  I just sawed through em.  Adds character.

I have the same air filtration system I've had for years.  A delta.  Doesn't do much for aerosols, unfortunately. I have an intake and two exhaust fans for the shop I put in when it built it, PITA to open the doors on them.  My main strategy in this case is open the doors and run a fan or blower.

No fasteners?  Except for the fasteners that existed in the timber prior to starting?
