A Busy Night

I had a busy night tonight. Dave came over and we set up Robosaw to finger joint some oak for a bookshelf he is building. It worked great!

Since I had the mess going I figured I would do some more work on the router table I am designing for my new router. I got quite a bit done, and basically just need to somehow mount the linear slides, create some sort of manual adjuster, and build a fixed fence. OK, I guess I have quite a ways to go yet...

Oh yeah! On the weekend Todd and I finished tolexing Coco so I could use the amp for band practice on Saturday. She's looking and sounding pretty darn sweet!



All that is left really is to come up with some nice faceplates to finish it off.

Now if you'll excuse me - I am going to go wash the sawdust out of my eyes, cough up a lungful of powdered MDF, and go to bed.

While I'm Up

I may as well post about my activities on the weekend as well. I spent the long weekend (finally) working on the next guitar amp. In particular, I took my robotic table saw for its maiden voyage and cut the finger-jointed pieces out for the cabinet. It worked great! There were definitely some lessons learned, and I think I'll have to improve the cycle time for any sort of volume production, but I am happy with the result.
