Shop cleaning and organizing day music was almost as old as me .....

While you have it apart, change the impeller

Oh to be this young again.....

One more from Nova Scotia's best band ever, Wintersleep ....

Are there any Wintersleep fans here?

Thank you Cliff. I look forward to chatting with you.

WOW! I see so many possibilities and potential uses for those beautiful pieces of acrylic. You and I need to talk! Stunning as always!

Thank you Gentlemen.

Great job, as always Chris!

well done Spiel I am sure there is a happy lady out there. Art

A couple of weeks back now when I shared the pictures of "Project 10," the Wine Bottle Stoppers a long time friend of mine shared the pictures with his wife who immediately loved the pink ones, not for her desire to have one but for another reason. She quickly called me and stated how much she loved the colour and asked if I could somehow modify her Umbrella to replace the handle with the pink acrylic, I said I'd be more than happy to try. So my friend brought me the Umbrella on Sunday and as I had feared it was an auto pop up with the mechanism built within the handle so a full handle replacement was out of the question....so onto plan B. The first thing to do was take apart the handle with a plan in mind ..... The plan was to add a "Butt Cap" style piece to the rear of the black rubber grip cut and finished at the required angle ..... But that idea due to perceived difficulties had me change my mind and I then decided to square up the rubber grip and go with a perpendicular mount .... And the acrylic turning begins .... Testing the dry fit .... Now that it was ready for gluing I had to make sure that the process did not allow the epoxy to run into the handle and seize the auto open/close mechanism, so a clamp was made to hold it upright (in the open position) while the glue set overnight .... And today it's all done, still working and ready to go back home with the hope that my friends wife will be pleased .... Thanks for looking.

Loved Alaska. Particularly Ketchikan.

Just a few pics of my two favorite places on the planet. The last Frontier, where I should be living.

I can certainly relate. I sure don't miss the humidity in Ontario. Lying in bed with nothing on and wide awake at two in the morning sweating profusely. We get the heat out hear but over the past twenty years or so, I and many others have noticed an incline in the humidity but no where's near as bad as Ontario. Last summer at the beginning of our record hot spell our air conditioner quit working, $7000 for a new one, that aint going to happen on our old age pensions. My wife and I years ago thought of moving to the Yukon, some where's south of White Horse. More often than not the weather up there, being so close to the ocean is nicer than here in Calgary. I would still love to, but I meant a native (a kinda urbanized Eskimo actually if you will) about twenty five years ago who had his own bush pilot business with six planes He said unless you have some money set aside, as work is scarce, it's very difficult to afford to live there. Just a jug of milk back then was $11:00. I, years ago wanted to move to Alaska. I had a subscription to magazine all about Alaska. Land of the midnight sun. I am very much into gardening and there where pictures of cauliflowers the size of a bushel basket. But the Yukon is very much the same. Incredible hunting and fishing.

Thank you Cliff. 🥰 I have something else straight out of left field that I hope to be able to share tomorrow.

So much Tallent !

Beauty Catch!!! Coated in a bit of flour, salt and pepper and fried in bacon fat!! I’m salivating…..

Not a fan of the heat and humidity any longer,but love my heat in the winter LOL

Maybe I should clarify I don’t like the heat and humidity of summer I like the cold weather that makes ice for fishing the snow is a side effect of the cold I can do without and if I could convince the wife to move north to Alaska, maybe not that far but North I’m gone

Being so fond of winter, I think you are residing in the wrong province bud, Lol. This came night before last and yesterday. little tiny flakes but they added up. Hundreds of car crashes as very few out here know how to drive. I just bought a new (to me) SUV last week so I stayed home so no one ran into me.

Well the first batch of Wine Bottle Stoppers I made generated enough interest that I was motivated to go ahead and make 10 more. One of them is left over Moose Antler I'll be be gifting to the client who had his custom rod reel seat and butt cap made from it. Can you spot it?

Wow you caught a big fish, what can we do with it? Among Us

Today's shop tunes as I finished "Project 10" 2.0 go way, way back.....
