Finally, after a long hard winter, I had power tools running. Did it ever feel good. All I did was build and install some shelves in the shed but the neighbours now know that spring is officially here!

If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

I know how you feel. Despite having a heated shop, when it was cold and dark outside during the winter I didn't feel like woodworking. In the last week it's gotten up to 60 degrees (!) and once more the urge to make sawdust has blossomed.

Yeah, things are getting back to normal around here. My driveway has a thin layer of sawdust coating the concrete. Now everyone knows where I live again.From the "deep south" part of Canada

I returned to a project I left undone last fall. It did take a while to find my place and start sawing again.Sometimes the old man passed out and left the am radio on so I got to hear the oldie songs and current event kind of thingsComment

It finally is reaching into the 50's on a regular basis,so yesterday and today I put the shop/garage into summer woodworking configuration. It had to be done before the 7th because I go in for shoulder surgery and any heavy lifting and moving will be out for awhile.

I had laugh when I read this. For me its now comming to the end of the comfortable WW time. Temperatures here are just starting to creep into the high 80s and we will be into the 90s and 100s before we know it. I am starting to look into a portable cooler for my garage so I can keep working in there for as much of the summer as possible. I much prefer to work with the door up but thats not very helpful if I have to run AC - oh well.Jon

I just figured out that there isn't enough time for both yardwork and shopwork.
