[Woodworkers] A long, long time ago ..

[Scott Rohan=Smith]

.I can still remember how .

 

5 years ago I started a new project - making a new TV cabinet for our living
room. And then along came the shingles. The shingles were bad enough but I
was one of the lucky 15% that the shingles leave behind nerve pain in the
area of the rash. Mine went from the left side of my belly button all the
way around to my spine. The 1st year was miserable. When summer came around
it eased up but as soon as it cooled off and had to start wearing heavy
clothing it started in again. Almost 5 years later, the pain can still kick
in for a short while but for the most part it's just a dull sensation that I
can put in the background of my mind. Moral of that story - GET YOUR DAMN
SHINGLES SHOT!

 

On with the TV cabinet. Long story short, I finally finished it! During the
worst parts of the shingles pain I just didn't have any motivation to work
on it. I would work on it a little here and there and make some bad mistakes
and so I'd quit working on it for another few months. I remember once asking
this list of good people what type of glass I could use and still get the
signal from the remote into the various devices (cable box, Blu ray, etc.).
Joe was one of you who replied, and I kept that advice with me along the
way. (I miss that goofy guy) All of a sudden this spring I got my motivation
back and I've been putting in a lot of time out in the shop. I hope the
feeling keeps going because I've got lots of projects I want to do. Now that
the TV cabinet is done  I'm cleaning up 5 years of clutter in the hopes of
stating some of those projects. 

 

Anyway, I've attached a few photos of the cabinet.

Doh, a beer I want a beer

Ray, the guy who buys me beer

Me, the guy whom Ray buys beer

Fa, a long way to go for beer

So, I think I'll have a beer

La, La la la la la la

Ti, no thanks I'll have a beer

And that will bring us back to Doh! Doh! Doh!
