Beachy Vibe Little Maple Buffet

I found this piece of, er, um,,,,,piece at a garage sale around the corner.

It was a sad, sad little water damaged buffet. But the nice thing

about wood is that it's hardy and forgiving!

Take a gander at this solid maple beaut...

Yes,,,that thing lying in there is the bottom shelf. The top looked just as bad as the rest of it.

They were asking $30...I offered 20 bucks. The two girls nearly threw it at me.

Should have offered 5. Oh well.

I had a bit of left over milk paint in turquoise. I brush a bit here and there on top and then painted the whole thing with CeCe Caldwells White.

A Little Reorganizing A Little Shop Tour

I cleaned and rearranged the shop today. Now that the wands are finally (almost) done, I needed to clean and rearrange things so that I could walk, use the table saw and find my bench.

Most of the rearrangement involved the hanging of the Bastard Tool Cabinet on the wall and moving my Festool sanders off the floor and onto the wall next to the Bastard.

There are a few corrections to what I say in the video:

I think the Port-A-Mate rack was more. I bought is a while ago.
What I say is cherry on the lumber rack looks like, and is, walnut.
I say “That’s about it” three (3) times. Only one (1) of those times is at the end.

How’s your shop organization? Time for a cleaning?
