Made some progress on the cedar box. Made the lid and clear coated the project. Installed the hinges and made some side handles. Installed the side handles and lid support strap.

Still not completed. Ordered hinges and latches. I still have to make the top lid for the cedar one.

I worked on a couple of storage boxes for the new tools I bought. Still in progress...

Burned some leaves and debris from the area I cleared last week. Cut up some small saplings growing randomly in the yard and burned them today. Keeping busy doing random tasks in the shop and outside. I am anxiously waiting for an amazing dowelling jig I ordered from Jessem Tools in...

The wood has been sitting for 20 years. Should be dry enough that it does not need venting. I am not going to cover the ground under the stack. It will only invite water to sit in puddles . For the time being it will have to sit covered. I ordered a trucker vinyl cargo tarp that is 18oz...

I got the stack covered with some cheap tarps for now. I ordered real vinyl trucker cargo cover 16' x 20' for a more permanent covering. Should be here Friday.

Stacked the boards on new rack! I'm beat!

Cleared out another area in my yard so I can set up a storage rack for the oak boards.

There are at least enough board left to fill another trailer. I'm going back once I get the boards on the trailer unloaded and stored safely.

Found a deal of a lifetime on 5/4 red oak rough sawn boards for approx. 30 cents a board foot. Air dried for 20 years. I was able to bring home a 12' x 6.5' trailer load. Almost 1200 board feet! Now I have to figure out where to store it all!

Finished clear coating the outfield table and gave it a good coat of wax. Another small project completed!

It's mainly for the log sled to rest on when I am slicing logs into boards.

Got the miter gauge grooves done on the outfeed table and adjusted the height.

I worked on a new extension table for my bandsaw today. Still need the grooves for miter gauge and height alignment.

Corner is now clean up. What a difference from what I started with!
