Is it furniture yet?

No. It is not. But I’m making progress. The bookshelf project has benefited from my sudden surplus of free time. All of the wood has been cut to size and the hardwood blanks got run through the jointer this afternoon to remove the saw marks and try to square them up a little. Pictures!

I will need to spend a little time getting the various dadoes and other milling things well defined and written down before tackling the next part but that’s ok because it’s time to get the garden ready so I’ll be able to think about that whilst carting around rocks and dirt. Now that it seems spring is here to stay more flowers have appeared in the yard. The wisteria in the front is blooming again and the bumble bees are fighting over it. Also, the daffodils in the back bed are blooming and there are more of them this year than last which is encouraging. There’s also a pink shrubby thing in the back by the sago palms that is very pretty but I can’t remember what it is called and I haven’t managed to take a decent picture of it for the album. More pictures!
