She was one of my kids.
Man, what a beautiful morning! Too bad it goes downhill after that. The first pic was taken about 10 to 7, right before the sun pokes its ugly head. The second pic was taken just after 7. It’s beautiful but you’re gonna want sunglasses for the rest of the day.
A small grey owl made its way into the house. You can’t touch em, they’re protected here. That bugger made his way into the house before and they had to call someone to have it removed to the tune of $1500.
I opened the doors and forgot about the owl. When I went back to check on him later, he had made his way out on his own. He was a cute little dude. He just stared at me and made some sort of clicking sound. Jokes on him cus I already knew it takes 3 licks to get to the center of a tootsie pop.
Maybe around 9 my saw started making a funny noise. I legit thought the bearings were going out and my saw was gonna have to be put down. I ran to HD real quick and bought another saw. Got back to the job site and was gonna go about modifying my new saw to mate with my wings. First thing is to take my good blade off of the old saw. I’ll be damned if my blade wasn’t loose. How does that happen, I just put a new blade on yesterday and I know I tightened it properly. Whatever. I tightened the blade back up and continued on with my day. Only difference is I now have one more saw to throw around in my van. I have an extra stand. I think I’ll mount it on that and make that my dedicated crown molding saw.
At the end of the day I had to run to Rockler to get some more super glue and activator. First time I’ve ever spent over $100 on super glue alone. Damn!
On the plus side today I learned that super glue doesn’t stick to my miter saw wings, because I waxed them. Nothing sticks to wax.
Let it harden and it scrapes right off. Ain’t that something. I love me some wax! Gonna have to rub some more on my wings now. Good thing I know a guy that makes his own.

Does the activator really work?
Sure does. Don’t think it makes the bond any stronger but it definitely speeds up the bonding process. Instead of kicking off in 10 or 20 seconds it kicks off in 2 or 3, so you better make sure your pieces are lined up where you want them or you’ll be bustin them apart and doing it again. Gotta be careful with what you’re spraying the activator on because it will damage some finishes as well as it will melt some foams and plastics. If you have superglue residue on your fingers and you spray some activator, it heats up. Haven’t actually burned myself yet but you can definitely feel the heat created from the chemical reaction between the adhesive and the activator.
Nice ! How about a sticky note showing High’s home base and the amazing golf course job site.
I'm really sorry to hear that Rusty.
What brand? Since I don't do much woodworking, I'm guessing a gel type or a thick one. About the only one I've ever used is from Bob Smith Industries. They will rebrand it to a stores name. This is what I use for most everything. ...yeah, owies too.
They make a LOT of adhesives and epoxy too.
