A couple of days ago, I found some family history written by my dad's brothers and sisters; I looked all morning for the files on my lap top. I have looked before and scrolled through all the files. I did it again this morning. I looked one more time this morning and slowly scrolled. I found it. The name of the file was "scanned." I printed the one written by my aunt Mary Johnson. It was eight pages long.
I then started on the miter saw stand, Yesterday, I determine that the legs were two long. This morning I cut eight inches off each leg. The bottom two legs have casters. So I cut eight inches off the top of the legs.
I got a good start at cutting off the legs. I hung it on the corner of my work bench, and began cutting with my battery operated circular saw. The saw stop just before I completed the cut. My phone rang. Carol was ready to go to Fillmore to get some medication and some groceries. I put the heavy weight on the leg to help hold it together while we were gone. We drove to Fillmore and we were gone a little less than an hour. We had lunch. I then watered our plants in greenhouse six.
The tomato plants are doing well. I put a few more tomato clips.
One leg is off and I am ready to cut off the other leg. After the leg is cut off, I held it together with a piece of plywood.
The clamps hold everything together while I drill holes and screw it back together.
Here I am putting in the to rails.
It was a pleasant surprise that it is level in both directions. That was pretty amazing.
The top is out of a piece of plywood, There are several piece of plywood making the bottom shelf.
The bench is finished. There is a piece of plywood on each side to help support the wood that is to be cut. I have a few more adjustments to make to make it easier to miter longer pieces of wood. I might make some wings that are hinges and then block them up.
Comments and questions are welcome.
