I made a rustic bench out of some of the reclaimed wood I got: I have a mitre saw that I got two X-mas's ago which I just broke out of the box for this. It is amazing. I don't have the room for it, but it changes everything. Two angles at once! The legs have 5 and 10 degree angles to them and they fit snug. Such a pleasure. More work on my painting. I started this painting for a friend, and my wife claimed it as hers today. Now I need to finish this one, and start another for my friend. I have conflicted feelings about that. I like EBay again. I have been using EBay to buy all sorts of things, from an enamel porcelain bucket for the sauna, to picture frames and RC car parts. I have been meaning to weigh in on the UFO thing. I have some thoughts.
