Making Sawdust
First project up is called Battery Bench
I'm tired of putting all the batteries for my toys on a boot tray on the floor for the winter
In addition I need a sturdy table so I can get the dehumidifier off the floor in the summer
Top of the legs for the bench with tricky cuts
Sides for the top, more fun cuts that just make crap loads of sawdust
Top in glue/clamp mode, bottom is 0.75" plywood

And even more glue and clamp before screw, brackets for lower shelf
The little guy is really coming together
But this is the slow part, I can only clamp so much then I have to wait for the glue to dry before I can add the screws

To my advantage/disadvantage I have so many projects active I just switch to another one while I wait for stuff to dry/cure.

It's my Mom's B-day today 
I have been very busy making sawdust...
Little Wren House- Such a cute tiny bird, this is my second house exactly like this, but this one goes on a pole, the one I made last year hung and we had 1 family use that one this year
Blue Bird House- Mom's favorite bird, we have lots of these guys, but I would like to get them closer to the house so another nesting box was needed, this too will mount on a pole, I have made so many of these over the years, but never the same exact design
Chickadee or Nuthatch House- We have a ton of these birds but I have never made them a house, I learned they like to hop into their nest from a tree, they do not like to fly up to the house, so this mounts to a tree so their front door is right next to the tree trunk
