We're in between classes and trips right now, so Chris, Kale and I are concentrating on our next pocketbook, which is on "smalls." Plus Chris is getting ready for – I'm shocked to report – an actual, non-woodworking vacation! OK…he and his wife, Lucy, will probably look at some woodworking in museums and such while they're gone next week, but as far as I know, he'll be relaxing…at least as much as his personality will allow.
In the meantime, I will not be getting started on my pantry cabinet build…because I need Chris to help me get the sheets of plywood into the truck and onto the table saw. But I'm drawing it out and committing to a style. The build will happen soon; the mess in that room has finally broken me.
