Nick's Knacks

You give me just a taste so I want more
Now my hands are bleeding and my knees are raw
'Cause now you got me crawling, crawling on the floor
And I've never known a girl like you before

“Purple haze, all around
Don't know if I'm comin' up or down
Am I happy or in misery?
What ever it is, that girl put a spell on me” Jimi Hendrix

She’s all I need

Was given this by my girlfriend. I’m getting good at rust removal. My sharpening process is sure fire. 1 1/4 pound axe head

Damn near ran out of elbow grease trying to remove all the rust but I managed! Theres some small deep rust spots and some tiny pitting on the table but she’s good as new. Finally a half decent jointer, no more bench top versions

Bought this old girl. All she needs is some and a lot of CLR. Will be spending hours restoring this 6” delta shop master jointer to use as my new work horse. Wish me luck.

Last winter I bought a tracksaw with 14’ of track. Needless to say it’s increased production and precision on all my projects

Rail and stile is always so satisfying to put together. Completed 6 more shaker doors

Yesterdays progress. 2 base cabinets built and fitted together. More coming…

More Cabinets coming soon…

More Cabinets coming soon…

Hardwood scraps make for colourful projects. I will be making more of these mountain barn quilts over the summer in between my larger projects.

As it gets warmer I get ready to space my summer away but until those days are here I figured I give my blades and tools a cleaning and waxing. Makes a work of a difference . . .

Happy 26th Birthday to my lovely Girlfriend ❤️ Here’s to more vacations and getaways together❤️
