Get it while you can

After my trip downtown I went to the Woodcraft store in Bloomington–I had a pretty good discount coupon. After a nice chat with wolfsword, who works there, I looked around and saw an Auriou rasp. These have been very well reviewed, but the company is going out of business. So that is what I bought. There are all sorts of other interesting tools I might have chosen, but I expect to have another chance at most of those. Not so one of these rasps.

Sunday Cleaning

As mia_mcdavid wrote, we did indeed clean out the rumpus room today. I had hoped to make some progress there, but we did far more than I had expected. It really is looking sort of decent, as garage/workrooms go. The next step for me is to clean off my workbenches, both the old one that came with the house and the one that I built here specifically for woodworking with hand tools. For that I will need to find and/or make some storage. I have some ideas about how to do that, but I probably will not get much done until next weekend.

One way or another, almost all weekend I have been doing things with mia_mcdavid. It has been good.
