Good morning everyone,
Well, it's been a very wet past week for us, local flooding, severe storms, and yes, my driveway disappeared for an entire day due to excessive rain. Also found out I have 3 roof leaks and will be getting a new roof put on this week. Man....roofing has gotten very expensive in the past few years.!!!!!
The antique school desk project has come to a close, delivered, and I started and finish a laminated stand for the LOML's dry grain grinder. She required me to make it out of nothing but scrap....so I did. She loves it and I think it is just dandy. Her grinder is a hand-crank type and now she's really happy because she can now grind her own wheat flour and corn meal. So that makes me happy as well.
I keep trying to find a way to get back on the lathe, but people keep finding me and needing flatwork done. So I'm off to doing as much of it as I can get money for.
The LOML and I want to start doing upholstery for furniture and we're looking for good info and a good forum to get with so we can learn about it.
Anybody here do or know a good way to start doing upholstery????
It appears that today will be our first non-rain day and I'm looking forward to getting outside for a change.
Well, that's it for me...so what did YOU do this past weekend??
Best of weeks to you all.
