  4. Which Cooking Are You?

    I've been charged with making my own Father's Day dinner so why not make it absurdly complicated?

    Not pictured are the short ribs that are resting, having come off of the smoker approximately 30 minutes ago.  Dinner should wrap together nicely at 7pm.

    Late to the Alcest train.  Really like Blackgaze, thus my love of Deafheaven.  But these guys do a lot more melodic stuff.  The Apple Music Alcest Essentials playlist is a nice 22 song, 2 hr 42 min way to enjoy music across their catalog.

    Cheese and rice, didn't I tell you about them back mid-COVID?  That's the shoe on the other foot, me telling you about music you haven't heard about already.

    Work on the humidor project continues and should be complete this weekend, well it sort of has to be since the presentation of the gift needs to happen Tuesday.  WIth that in mind I did some more fab work on limited time at night this week making the piece for the bottom of the removable tray and doing a bunch of sanding.  Precision was applied in some areas and is lacking in others, such is the nature of the things that I make.

    This is the custom bottom panel for the tray.  The air-flow holes are a pattern that I developed to mimic the drilled shaft foundations that we are currently installing to support the two new dry docks.  The large holes are the 9 foot diameter shafts that will start installation this fall/winter and the smaller holes are the 6'-6" shafts we're in the process of installing now.

    This is the bottom panel of the box complete with laser-engraved command logo.

    Mix of wood and metal in the shop for the next week as I work to build a command gift for my boss.  Turnover is this week into next with the Change of Command officially next Tuesday.  I copied the ammodor concept since you cannot simply order one and have it delivered reliably and I guess because I can.  So far it's coming out alright, more difficult to do what I want to than expected.  Today's lesson - CNC's let you fuck stuff up with precision.  Most mistakes have been recoverable, but time consuming.  Only thing photo worthy so far is the custom panel for the inside of the top cover which houses the hygrometer and humidity packs.

    The box that goes in the box is glued up and curing.  The tray that will nest into the box-in-the-box is also glued up as of 20 minutes ago. The bottom panel for each will get a laser-engraved logo, hopefully tomorrow night.
