And now am really beat. Time to sit, unlax, and browse for a bit.

Assorted tools and items that rain could hurt are under cover. Hoping precautions not necessary but will be working at the mall tomorrow.

Both outside firewood piles that were uncovered are recovered as well as the pile of building materials. Rest of the table parts now inside.

Hoping the stuff I have got to get done is now done. Rest of wood unloaded from trailer. Back porch wood pile replenished.

Now to go out and see if I can get the other legs done. After coffee…

Stuff mostly done. Am much tireder now than before I went over to the other trailer, but got the shelving in the back of the truck.

Got one leg done. Kinda sorta. 3 more to go. And totally worn out with stuff I still gotta do before tomorrow. Guess I need to get at it…

Guess this is just one of those days. Gonna eat lunch and start on the table again…

Hammered the hole down a bit and drove it back in. Went to find the locktite. No joy. Neither bottle. 🙁 Found super glue, used that.

Went to put the 1/4 inch in the drill and the chuck key cross handle fell out. You know, on the new one I just put on the chain. 🙁

Found dowel centers in the 4th or 5th toolbox I looked in. Then the hunt for the drills was on. Found them after a short (5 minute) hunt.

The table was assembled with nails & glue originally, so not really sure why I’m even trying, but if it’s worth doing it’s worth overdoing.

Now to find the bag of dowel centers so I can do all the other doweling that I’m gonna have to do to finish the reassembly correctly.

Find the drill bits. Locate the dowels. And the glue. And the clamps. Finally after about an hour get the leg doweled, and clamped down.

On the small diameter leg they won’t work. Grind the points to the same length and then resharpen. Find the center on both pieces.
