I'm not sure who this The Band is, but I LOVE the REACT channel. Kids/teens/adults/senior citizens/etc. reacting to things. It's great!

I've told you, or you've heard of, this movie, right? This is one of the best documentaries ever. I mean, I may have event watched this with you, I just can't remember anymore.

Anyone else spend hours listening to young people reaction videos? #anyone #bueller #tobeyoungagain #fucktrump

^ I listened to it three times since it was released, and I really like it. Maybe the album cover 'put a spell on me', but enjoyable.

I don't listen to CPE Bach much, but I enjoyed this. The space it was recorded in comes through and creates a nice cozy environmnet.

No, magic 50Kwatt fiber laser table and magic 200w CO2 laser table.

Awesome work, Al! I’ve been pretty busy tearing apart a building, but I did manage to get these non-woodworking signs built for a local company.

As usual, I can never tell if it is me or Artificial Intelligence. In this case, I think Grahame's post could go either way...

My friend and former secretary has asked me -- and now Steve -- to build some cabinets for a pantry area next to the kitchen at her new house. That project will take a while to percolate but I decided to build here a kitchen island in the meantime to replace a table she has been using to expand her counter space. Her cabinets have a dark cherry stain so at first I was going to go paint grade to avoid clashing. Rooting around the shop, however, I found enough figured maple boards for the main pieces and thought that would fit well so I went for it. I had to buy the prefab butcher block top and maple 1x3s for the slats below, but all the other maple and one plywood for the drawers and cabinet bottom were in the shop. It's hard to tell from the photos but the figuring on the cabinet and drawer fronts is really pretty. She wanted a knife drawer and another for large cooking utensils, so that's what she got. The knife blocks are maple with non tarnishing felt. Very happy with the results, except that I don't love the coloring of the butcher block. Terri loves it but may not be able to use it fully until she can get over the idea of marring it. 😂

I forgot to post the very short trailer

Y'all come..

All bookcases completed. And the other project I alluded to... This Walnut cookie was cut from a tree on Al's Brother's property, where now stands his new house. This table will now sit on the covered veranda, not far from where the tree originally stood. Al found the base from a seller we've used before for table legs. Hard to see from my poor photography skills, but there's lots of burl in this piece.

One of three. Still need to assemble the bases onto the other two, then apply some Rubio finish.
