What did you do in your shop today?

Not today, this was from Friday and Saturday.

I'm working on adding drawers to the new outfeed table I built several months ago. I'm also working on finally adding drawers to the router table I built a couple years ago.

Drawer sides/fronts/backs for the drawers for the outfeed table. I will be adding a solid wood front to the drawers.

Made a quick jig to be able to quickly and easily hold the pieces 90 degrees to each other for putting in the pocket screws. Ideally I'd have used these drawers to practice joinery, but this is a project I'm trying to get done within 3 or 4 days of shop time, and I'm already at 1 1/2 days of shop time on this.

Not pictured: I have all the wood drawer runners for the outfeed table cut, pre-drilled and countersunk, and ready to install both on the sides of the drawers and in the cabinet. I have also started cutting drawer sides/fronts/backs for the router table.
 
Now that looks more like a Monkey saw. Are you making a mallet or will this be a 800 lbs work bench that is way to nice to use but you will anyway because you are a Monkey?
 
I spent the morning at my barn unstacking walnut lumber to get to that bear's claw figured maple. Not down to it yet. After lunch I cut some 16/4 and 12/4 PA cherry turning blanks for a local customer. Will offer a few pieces here for you vase and peppermill turners. It's beautiful with very few gum streaks. Tonight, I'm enjoying a glass of Jim Beam. It was a good day but cold.
 
It appears that you are using the same handsaw for both ripping and crosscutting. Is that right?

Yes sir. Unfortunately, I only have this one saw at the moment. I know I have a couple others but they are in a tool box behind some "stuff" I need to do something with....
