Bummer. Would a 20 amp breaker solve the problem? It couldn't be too hard to get an electrician to swap one in there.

https://www.festool.com/-/media/tts/fcp/festool-com/downloads/wood-magazine/festoolwoodmagazineno32021ipen.pdf Big Green is coming out with a cordless Kapex and cordless dust extractors. Not sure if it will be in the USA as early as in Europe but that is pretty cool for jobsite tradespeople.

Happy Birthday Mike (Absorbine_Senior)!
Your beer bias is showing. 😝 Mike knows that is a King Crimson album cover. But Larks Tongue In Aspic cake sounds grim. 🤢

Happy Birthday Adam!
Belated happy birthday Adam! Maybe we can go to the postponed Pliny the Younger day as a postponed birthday! Cheers!

Two times too early to go! Meat Loaf again?! I yelled that out RHPS midnight shows many a time. Never really got into his music but they were fun every once in a while, and like as Todd said were huge in my youth. And Louie was only ten years older than me! Glad that Baskets was one of his last shows because he was genius in that role. RIP Louie and Meat

Steve's favorite slides are Knape & Vogt or just KV. I bought some extremely stout KV slides for my Festool drawers and they are excellent.

The cutting board looks great. I'm probably telling you something you already know, but a cross-cut blade with way more teeth will give you smoother cuts with the sled. I don't always switch but it is an improvement.

Au revoir M. Beineix. If I hadn't watched Diva twice in the last two years, I would watch it this weekend. I guess Betty Blue will have to do. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/film/2022/jan/14/jean-jacques-beineix-dies-aged-75-betty-blue-director

I don't have any great connection to Saget -- never watched Full House and never got into the nasty Saget stand-up -- but 65 is too young. I hope it was not self inflicted in some way.

What about Snoop Shelby's version? What does that do to your head?

I wanted to show off the sign that Steve engaged Naaman to design and carve on the ping pong table. It is a beautiful piece of cherry that will age along with us, although unlike is it will look better over time. I haven't really organized the stuff on the peg board, it's just there temporarily because I'm trying to get everything out of the old shop space.

I'm no paint expert, but I don't see any point to sealing those walls or the ceiling. Unless you are going to practice wall walking I don't think it will get a lot of wear and tear, and whitewash is supposed to be a little rustic too. Touching up as necessary down the road also seems easier than sealing all the surfaces. It would take some coats to seal that thirsty pine.

What are you listening to Part the Third

I was thinking white oak also, but I'm not great at identification.

Has anyone else heard of Bloodrock? Not familiar myself, but Wikipedia says they were popular in Texas and the southwest.
