I was wondering who would be the 1st to notice that...

or maybe who would be the 1st one rude enough to rag my ass about it

The Lava Lamp was mrs zoid's idea...I got rid of my strobe/black light years ago (& I've been kicking my own ass for it ever since)

And just to prove how things always come around in cycles, #2 son insisted on having one of his own after seeing his mom's....


EXACT-A-MONDO!!!

Actually, I find the most disturbing thing about NYWS is not that he has all the great expensive tools (can you say product placement?), but how un-naturally CLEAN Norm's shop is...I wouldn't know how to work in an environment where I don't have to watch every step, or worry that my pounding one item on the bench might cause another object to crash to the floor...


Never had a reason to...I've done nearly all kinds of other joinery but as I said, I never did a furniture type project or trimmed out a door/window myself...

But I do know that mitering a corner by eye means you'll be doing it again real soon...

How on earth did I miss the Lava Lamp when I first looked? Did you change the pic? I never even noticed it was there! Now of course it's the first thing I see when I look at the pic :rolleyes:

Well, no, I didn't change the pic, but I'll take it as a compliment that my brilliant craftsmanship outshone the 60's kitsch (at least in your eyes)...

:nod: I'm still seriously impressed with the cabinet :thumb:

A few pics from my new camera
 

Random pics of a frozen lake and a visitor I spotted in a tree just outside the house. Haven't seen a squirrel in these parts for a couple of years so I was glad to catch it on camera :)

The first squirrel pic is slightly blurry, but I was using the zoom at full stretch (10.7x) with no tripod so in that respect I guess it's not too bad as a snapshot pic. The second squirrel pic is less blurry, again taken with full zoom and no tripod. It was a bloody cold day, too, so I was rushing to get back inside as I was out there with not many clothes on :p

:wave:

I'm still seriously impressed that you have that lava lamp.:rockon:



(Does that have my initials scratched on the bottom? :confused: )

Your pics are great FWM :) ..... and the red squirrel with the winter ear tuffs is most interesting to us across the pond. :thanks:

Thanks PF :)

I spotted a new place on the marginal today that recently opened. HAD to circle back to take a pic. I may go back in the daylight to get a better pic. ;)

Wait, how did they get bears to make cabinets? Or are they bears in cabinets? Or are they cabinets with bears on them? And if that's the case are they real bears sitting on the cabinets or are they pictures of bears painted (or otherwise) on the cabinets? And while I'm at it, what do bears have to do with cabinets anyway?

I can't bear not knowing, either.

And I wonder if they use Behr wood finishes exclusively?

Just spent the day taking/editing random pics of LOUD.

Don't try to distract and polarize our members with your grizzly comments. I did make a daytime trip back and at great peril I parked on the edge of the shore way while it wasn't busy and clawed my way over the fence to the marginal to get a pic of the kodiak carpenters. I guess they don't work on Saturday. :shrug:

We flew over the Franklin and Gordon Rivers today, where a massive environmental battle was fought with the Government who wanted to dam this significant wilderness area.

The colour in the picture of Sir John falls is true, the water is Coke coloured from all the tannin from the forest.

Great pictures, OF!
