Today:
I made some long boards shorter.
I made some wide boards narrower.
I made some crooked boards straight.
I made some cupped boards flat.
I made some thick boards thinner.
To accomplish this, I used the table saw, jointer, bandsaw, and planer. These are normal everyday operations for a woodworker. The great thing is that my Shopsmith did it all with a little bit of help from me.
Have YOU thanked your Shopsmith today?
All of the above is the start of a birthday present for my wife. We had a discussion and decided the she already has pretty much whatever she wants that you can readily buy in a store. I suggested that I make a present for her instead. She was all for it. She still doesn't know what it is but it will help solve a problem that driver her crazy everyday. I can't tell you what it is yet so you won't spoil the secret but it won't take too long so I'll soon post pictures and her reaction.
