Change of Command is this week, which means I get my 4th boss in three years (FML) so I decided I'd fabricobble the command gift.  The outgoing skipper is a Navy diver who has a penchant for clapping to build morale.  So I decided that I needed to work all that into the gift.

So the rough motif is a replica Navy diving bell mounted to a plaque with our command logo and major project logos engraved into brass coins.

but the kicker is that the helmet sits on an LED base that lights up and yes, can be controlled by a Clapper. :)

Al and I are building a bathroom vanity, and a closet door for his Sister in law, and her wife. We've built many things for them in the past, including a full kitchen remodel. This vanity will be a modern, White Oak, 60" unit. Center mounted single sink, and three drawers on each side. 

If you've ever had to squeeze into a 14" opening to install drawer glides, you will have learned to measure and install them prior to assembling the cabinet. So that's just what we did today.

Not too much head scratching, before figuring out the correct placements.

Those are the interior dividers. The side pieces were done before these.

If I wasn't certain that I haven't been drunk since I was 16, I'd swear I was shit-faced in that second picture. 

I've come to terms with having a bald spot, but Foster Brooks has to go!
