Violation of Rule #1

I am not very good at following the rules or coloring between the lines (which is interesting given what I do for my real job). But today I violated RULE #1. No working on shop furniture in the house.

It was too cold and threatening rain and snow to finish this crappy little bookcase outside. I was working on it a couple of days ago when the weather was good. I gave up after I put a nail through my thumb with the nail gun. I want to bring it into Gypsy Lea's tomorrow so I did haul it into the house. I glued it, clamped it and punched in a few small nails with the hammer.


The bare wood under the shelves is not visible when the bookcase is on its feet. The cats have all explored it, Willie crawled right inside. Babe has ignored it. And it should be ready to haul to Sauk Rapids tomorrow on my way to another auction.

Isn't that nail in the thumb thing a blast

Luckily it was only a flesh wound, but it scared the hell out of me.
