Long time no sea, my health was such that I was not very bothered to be social. I temporarily have stopped woodworking, but it will definitely come back in the next year. For now I’m concentrating on healing, losing weight and improving my overall fitness.
It made me reflect on things and I realised that some things cannot wait in life, so I set myself a goal, the pipe dream will become a reality. But more about that later. For now my energy meter is stuck at “Feck it, it’s grand”
Finally, the end result. I learned a lot and I’m happy with the outcomes.
#WoodWorking #menuisserie #Handtools #TinyWorkshop #GarageWorkshopI’ve been nice to myself… some tools for the next semester at the CNFPC
Didn’t get to post here for a while because of sickness, but we’re making progress with the table project. I have started with the table top’ centre. It’s a combination of ash and padouk.
#WoodWorking #menuiserie #CNFPCAfter getting hospitalised the last time I was in the Netherlands. I finally managed to pick up my wood for the next projects. Sipo Mahogany, African Padouk, and Amarant (Purple heart). The quality is brilliant!
I just checked in at wrinklesaurusses (aka B&B Mama) and now I’m on the couch resting from the long drive with a cuppa.
#wood #woodworking #menuiserie #AmsterdamseFijnhoutNot much progress was made on Thursday but I managed to glue up the drawer perfectly square and continued with the inside of the corpus. Second photo of the example. I be was planning on passing by the Amsterdamse Fijnhout yesterday but with the traffic being exceptionally busy in the Netherlands I didn’t make it on time. The Sipo and Padouk wood I ordered will be collected another day in the future.
#woodworking #CNFPC #menuisserieTook some work home with me for my
#Woodworking course at the
#CNFPC. It was a bit of a dog of the female persuasion but I managed to square up the dry-fit of the table drawer, after sanding the insides up to 240-grain. The wood is baby-bottom smooth.
Update on my
#woodworking course. The corpus of the table has been finished and I glued it up. I have prepared all parts for the drawer and took them home so I can work on that during the Easter hols. Some have started on their tabletop already. I’ve ordered Padouk and Amaranth wood at the Amsterdamsche Fijnhout for a 11x11 chessboard
#menuiserie #training #CNFPCOne year ago Cally found out she had her forever home with us. I nicknamed her Miss Moneypit as we had regular visits to the veterinary clinic. But look at her now, nearly 15 years, in full health, a joyful and active little fluffball of love.
She’s my little petal and I’m still wondering who rescued who 😉 Michèle and I will spoil her this weekend, she’s so worth it.

A side project for the Sunday: I got some oak. I think it’s going to be a little box. I straightened everything, now I’m going to reflect on how to dimension it.
