Getting bored ? Some ideas.

[Jim Bennett]

I'd love to see! Camping pics are soon going to be in short supply.

We got to see pics of Robert's home being built. Post yours in a new thread in Cyber Campfire.

You can always organize you photos.
We have been doing that on and off for the last few months.

Mine are somewhat organized, but I have a decade worth that need to be gone through to delete many, then edit the rest, then post the best to my hosting site. I would guess I have 10 days of full time work to get this done.

Got a professional painter doing the stucco high up on our house.Some repairs on same.Will paint the lower part myself, cedar siding.Not climbing ladders anymore, wife won't let me anyway.
Roofer coming to fix flashing by the chimney.Rock retaining walls always needs some fixing.I go and sit in the trailer once in a while, just dreaming.Fence could use power washing and paint.
With an old house (53 years) it is always something to do.However would be going stir crazy in an condo.When this Corona thing is over we would like to go north in BC.The Rockies are calling me.

I have an Estwing 26 oz. framing hammer.
Which shows how little I know.

If you can swing that massive thing effectively, it shows how much you know. If you can't...

I have many different pneumatic nailers and staplers, probably at least a dozen, as well as a Paslode spiker, which all see lots of use, but one of my many hammers gets used way more often. The pneumatic stuff is great when needed for sure, but there is a smooth faced hammer hanging off my Carhartts most of the time. Rubber hammers get used lots too.

Hammers are important, and will definitely work good at opening beer, but they are usually put away when the beer comes out.

Well, I would agree a good hammer, especially one that feels just right in ones hand should be a much respected ...... in our last house I installed hardwood ( 1 1/4x3/4") in three bedrooms, two hallways, two staircases and living room with my good hammer, the old-fashioned way with hardwood nails ( Wolf just cuts- I am a bit of a power tool phob - especially saws- aside from drills) ...in this house I just did a smallish area by hand then decided it was time to learn to use a pneumatic nailer...it was cool - the only power tool I did better with than Wolf.

I will work at getting what photos I have organized soon. This week I will take some photos of the interior finished areas once all the glass products are installed.

Okay then, you can sit with Jasper and supervise. Peter, my youngest grandson was helping me a lot yesterday. He is 18 now..... months that is.

I'm not so good at sitting......pretty sure young Peter will keep you on your toes ....

I bought a 24 oz non Estwing when I started building my addition 25 years ago, couldn't hit a thing with it then and I'm sure I couldn't now. Still have it though.
