Decided to scavenge pieces from the old drill press cart to build something with more drawers and a shelf to store various jigs across the bottom. Also needed it to be a bit shorter to limit lifting of the heavy ass drill press and fit the taller unit.
New drill press will evidently be delivered tomorrow.
Jeff Beck dead at 78. RIP to the legend. And fuck bacterial meningitis! Yuck.
My next oldest brother had a couple JB records I borrowed a lot before he went to college and then JB had a hot record There And Back with Jan Hammer when I was a senior in high school. I stupidly lost my paper ticket to see him on that tour and ended up seeing AC/DC the same night. That was fun and all, but my two buddies who saw JB constantly rubbed it in that it was the most amazing concert they ever saw, Yada Yada Yada.
I finally saw JB live with JP# in Oakland and it was great even though not the same as 1980 would have been. We got very high and required large burgers in a sketchy neighborhood to sober up enough to drive home.
Rock in Peace JB
R.I.P. Jeff Beck

It's insane right now. Southern California has a tornado warning.
I had to drive into town to get gas for our generator, and it was like an obstacle course with trees down, most of the town was without power and dark. Coming back up the mountain, a chunk of it came down on some cars.
Good times. Tomorrow is another round.
