This weekend, I have some plans to finish up my miter saw stand, and do some other "puttering" around my shop. Putting together a list of actions, and their order, to help me keep myself accountable (:

  • Align the miter saw at 45 degrees (it's a hair off)
  • Align the tablesaw blade arbor to the miter slots
  • Cut the parts for six total drawers
  • Build drawers, and install

I used to do rough carpentry back many years ago, and now that I'm trying to make something that I care about, I'm reminded of just how much planning, prep, and care people need to put into their hobbies. No more, "hit it until it fits" in my garage!
