This winter has been brutal. I just can't seem to drag myself outside to finish any projects and when I do, everything fights me and if its plastic it breaks. So I find myself inside too much with too much time on my hands. This is what happened.
My wife really hated the knotty pine basement, I got to take over some space if I painted it...

painting the knotty pine is knot fun. there are a lot of seams and routered edges and a ton of nooks and crannies that try to make unsightly drips. I used a primer and a satin paint.

then came the part where I take up space. I made this table, 4'6x12' its a good sized table.

After digging through boxes in the attic I located what I was looking for. most of this stuff I had in a box that had not seen daylight since 1992. I missed this stuff and feel like a kid again. The super international set is new, thanks to the happy wife!
