Just think you can anyway

The Garage is almost clean! Yesterday we spent most of the morning moving boxes to storage and rearranging the remaining detritus in an effort to make the garage look like a place where you could park a car as opposed to our own personal mini-storage unit. Then we went to Home Depot and got a bunch of wood and a kit to make a workbench. I also got a vise and a grinding wheel, because what good is a workbench without a saw and a grinding wheel? I should be just about done with it tonight. Then I’ll have to come up with some other way to clutter up the garage.

In other news, kiln-dried Douglas Fir costs about $4.50 per board foot from our local hardwood company. They have marine plywood too, but only 3/4″ so I’ll probably be buying from multiple places. Still, at that price the total wood cost should be under $500, which is pretty good I think.
