What's happening in the David Mary Custom shop?

I heat the house with wood heat. That means on the coldest days, I wake up, make a fire, drink coffee and play a few chess games, answer emails, make calls, and then reup the fire, before heading to the shop. Where I then build a fire, which takes some time to get the shop to a level where I can actually handle tools and materials without my hands going numb, then work for however long. And the longer I stay at the shop, the colder it is when I get home, which means building a new fire right away when I get home. So the coldest days so far have involved three or four trips to the wood shed in addition to that. Next week is supposed to be a bit less cold, and the days are starting to get longer again, so I felt next week would be a little easier to get fired back up again. This is my first winter using wood heat at home, and I know it's probable there will be even colder days coming, but I expect the above mentioned cycle will be more tolerable with the longer daylight.

So Dave's here, but strategizing to avoid winter blues burnout.
 
FWIW the sentence was perfectly constructed. On the other hand, I am watching a police interrogation video and the detective said "amount of people"....


My curse, to always notice these things... That'll teach me for reading a lot as a teenager 🤣

Come to think of it I think I did use p.g. last year in my glue water. If I did, I would have tested first, but since I can’t remember for certain I’ll just try again. Know in an hour if it works properly.

And a certain simian socialite has acquired ownership of the R&D Flip Point and patiently allowed the end of my vacation before shipping, so now’s the time to stick yon makers mark thereupon to have it ready for the next postal run.
