    Looks like some serious joinery, particularly the middle plank. How does it all join together?

    It was supposed to be a bridle joint. The bottom or top piece slide into the middle piece at a 90 degree angle. I was working late, tired and rushing. I ran the middle piece across the saw making a cut that was meant for the other two, not that one. So what was a 10 second lapse in attention because I was rushing cost me having to go back to dimensioning rough lumber. 

  2. As the omicron wave started retreating up here in PA, I started to think we were going to make it out of this without catching it. 

    We've been as careful as we could be short of taking our kid out of school. 

    5 year old woke up with symptoms and tested positive this morning. fuck.

    Early on in the pandemic I was looking at infection and death rates a couple of times a day it seemed.  Then I just said "fuck it", what's the point.

    Any particular good links with the cleanest easiest to read US and world graphs?  I'm probably less interested in state and local than I am country and world. 

    I’ve been using the New York Times dashboard: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/us/covid-cases.html

    that is the link to the main US page. You can back out to world view with the drop downs at the top (World > latest maps and data)

    I look at the US map a few times a week. It was interesting watching the delta wave spread from Missouri south to the gulf, across to the Atlantic, and then north through Appalachia. It was also interesting to see how, at the county level, a difference of 10% in vaccination rate made a significant difference in delta’s spread and how currently omicron doesn’t give a fuck.

    Nice. Build me one for my garage please.

    Not until the price of Baltic birch comes down. I had almost enough on hand for the whole thing. Ended up using 1/2” instead of 3/4” for the drawer fronts because I had it.  3/4” was $60 for a 5’x5’ sheet when I last bought some in June. Went back in early December for more and they only had 4’x8’ sheets and they were nearly $200.
