Shop Teacher Bob: BSA Sidecover
http://shopteacherbob.blogspot.com/2015/05/bsa-sidecover.html
He that hath a trade hath an estate; and he that hath a calling hath a place of profit and honor" - Benjamin Franklin. Sunday, May 17, 2015. I made a sidecover for the BSA yesterday. Two reasons for it. First I wanted to make something now that I've got most of the woodworking stuff set up. Second, I wanted to try my hand a making a die for one-off/low volume parts. I suppose. I'd like to think that after Surly comes up with his final design that I can actually make it. Won't be good if I can't.

I just got needs some maintenance before I can commute on that. The wife's car. What was I talking about? Oh yeah, the roof.

Diary of a Wimpy Dad: Customer service

Diary of a Wimpy Dad. Trying to pay attention to the little things. Sunday, September 26, 2010. Today, Mrs Mike participated in a charity event. In Chicago. Mini Mike and I went along for support, and to pet all the dogs and get free stuff. Getting there was the hard part. We need to get going! We made it out of the house by 6:45. Not bad. I watch her go to the counter and bring up my order on the register, She then walks around the other side of the counter and swipes my card. Then, she has to go ba...

Diary of a Wimpy Dad. Trying to pay attention to the little things. Tuesday, September 28, 2010. Ask someone that has worked for this kind of establishment before. Who pays for that stuff anyway? Then he posted a link to a website that streams it for free. Illegally, of course. I'm gonna try to explain my feelings on this topic. Would you say that if you were in the same position? Or, more likely, would you want to "get paid". You and I have had the exact same opportunity to excel at any craft we wan...

Not What I Wanted to Hear, Doc. Aw Shit, this is gonna suck. Cool Wet End of March……. March 31, 2012. We had a storm front move through here last night and it’s dropped the temps some today. Not bad. Just not as beautiful as it’s been this last week. So I’m hanging out inside more than out in the garage as normal. I seem to be a bit more sensitive to the cool temps than I was before. Kind of a challenge at this point, but we’ll get there. Enjoy your day, Kids. Nothing much to say here. March 28, 2012.
