I write all most every day of what goes on in our home in the garden and in the nursery. We are ordinance workers at the Manti Temple on the Tuesday morning shift and the Saturday evening shift. In addition there are several trips to Utah county a couple of times a month and a few short trips to other mountain west areas. Our family is most important to us. All of our children live in Utah except one who lives in Kentucky.

The Piano Bench Still ---
We are able to leave the Manti Utah Temple and hour earlier than we usually do. We then get home an hour sooner.
I cleaned the shop. The was sawdust and small pieces of wood on the floor and dust on top of everything. I scrape the sawdust into a pile with a long handled squeegee and scrape into a pile and then gather it up with a dustpan. I took most of the sawdust out the watermelon garden.
I have been using an 84 four tooth saw. I like it because it makes very smooth surface. The draw back is how dusty it is. There is dust on everything in the garage. I took it off and put on another blade which has fewer teeth. It was so dull. It smoked all over trying to rip a board.
Now to the bench. It looks really good, but it wobbles some to the left or fight. I bought four lag bolts to put through the top down into the legs at each end. One end I missed the legs. I made two more holes. I made a small piolet hole, then another hole to counter sink the lag bolt and then a hole through the top to accommodate the bolt. To my disappointment there was not room for a wrench. Then I used some large screws. I made some plugs to cover the screws and cover the holes that I didn't use. In the morning I will trim off the plugs.
