Last Notes npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge Reading up on raised beds. Mainly for how to prep the ground. I thought sheeting was needed for weed control, but it seems flipping the sod is a better way. Hmm. npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge Workbench restore thread 1. npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge Could I trouble you to elaborate on your sled? That sounds like something I could use for 4x6cm boards, for example, and especially if I can set the saw at 45°. npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge Not the second Sorby gouge yet. This is a third, bigger gouge. I wanted to try a different style handle, a double tapered octagon. This time ash, not beech. Took the tinted oil much differently. More blond. A brass ferrule would look better here. npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge I used this saw set first. npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge I need a 10” regular taper saw file for 3 ½ ppi, seemingly, and while many places in the area sell Bahco files, none sell that size, and Bahco doesn’t sell direct. npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge Effective immediately and definitively, I no longer use scotch brite pads and similar in my #restorations, #woodworking, or anything else. These products fall apart into plastic dust as they are used, going straight into the environment. npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge I think the hunter/gatherers have it right. npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge I am pretty damn frustrated by the gardening I’ve embarked on since February. No one else at home cares (ergo no help). Everything seems to be stunted, dying, or getting eaten by some fucking thing or another. Then there’s the stinky cat shit. Every damn day! npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge Just heard about this small business, Voilà Sailcoop, that shuttles tourists back and forth between mainland France and Corsica as a slower more ecological means of travel over planes. Apparently business is good. npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge Have declared war on the slugs and snails on our property. They are out of control right now. I don’t dare put my plants into soil yet or they will be annihilated. Even having a couple chickens and a tribu of hedgehogs would not scratch the problem. npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge I need to find time to get out and prune and thin the apple and cherry trees before it warms up. They haven’t been done in what looks like a couple years at least. Also need to move the small fig to a more open space. Someone had put it right next to a wall. npub1q4zqq8pq3pjatn732c2kdc6tu5hrjh0x5scn9ec7ug7zw68ttxmq5ld0hm wedge I must not understand the language settings (seemingly apply to ‘public’ timelines), or they are not working.
