Small Talk
Chad: My family had the week off for Spring Break and most of the time that I wasn’t at work I spent with them. It’s crazy how when your kids start getting older, family time is very segmented. I’m lucky to have one of the two home at a time. Worked a typical week and on my only day off I spent it cleaning junk that I have been ignoring out of the backyard. I made my wife happy. I also created a space to store the slabs that I came into last week. throw to Darryl.
Charles: It’s Masters Week here which means a 500% increase in traffic, which means longer commute times, and big headaches all around.
Darryl: youtube video, llc appointment
Working On
Chad: I’m working on a couple of orders for several customers. We did a few two color tumblers and I have several to laser etch. I really tried to spend very little time in the shop this week. I really wanted to give my family the family all my spare time.
Darryl: finishing my accountability items… finally
Charles: New desk for workshop, Chainsaw Sharpening

Chad: Puting T slot on my Shapeoko compliments of Ed Ford. I’ve had it for a while and I’ve just finally got it on the old wasteboard. I can’t wait to try to and hold multiple objects in a row and not have to glue everything down.
Charles: Bolts and Nuts by the pound at Tractor Supply “Menards too”, Klingspor Care Package
