What did you do in your shop today?

Working on a box for the worship team at my church. Used the CNC to carve the logo, wanted to just have wood, but there was the core of a pith that was exposed and it was really soft, so I cleared the pith and poured resin.

That is the worst Batman logo I've seen in a while. Might as well turn it sideways and call it a dove....
 
Picked up the couplers I needed for the dust collection hose. Now it's easy peasy to connect the shop vac. I think I want to get one of those ivac switches that turns your vacuum on and off when you turn a tool on. I can use a corded drill for that. 20210308_195804.jpg

Once again before work, I had about 20 minutes. So work progressed on the wall bracket to hang the pocket hole jig on.

I ran out of spray polycrylic so I shot some clear rustoleum on it. Stinks indoors and doesn't dry as fast. Pics when it dries.
 
Cut 50 or so slices of cypress branch for the wife to make wreaths and planter boxes out of. The ran out of daylight and sat around in the kitchen tinkering with a piece of scrap steel barn roofing. This was bout a six inch long scrap that fell apart in the most unusual way...

I finished up the brackets to mount the Kreg jig to the wall. Once the finish dried I mounted the mounts. The little block at the bottom. Is just carpet taped to the wall, just helps it to hang level.

A nice out of the way space and it's easy on and off.

I think this project is done. Guess I need to check my list and see what's next.

Guess auto correct combined 'my list'. Looks good, like how you added the steady block (brace block) on the wall. Makes sense.

Good Job!! I would have never guess "my list". I was trying to get moisture levels etc and all other kind of wet things!!

I've been meaning to do this exact thing with mine and haven't yet.

Pretty soon phones and computers and AI drones will do everything for us, without us even asking them to. Because the computer geeks all think they can make computers smarter than people. Won't that be fun?
