WoodWorkWoman: Wooden Heart
http://www.woodworkwoman.com/2011/02/wooden-heart.html
Monday, February 14, 2011. Happy Valentine's Day from your WoodWorkWoman! Is anyone else old enough to remember this vintage Elvis song. Be sure to click on the Elvis link - to see the original - it's really cute.) I passed this card out to my fellow students today and no one but me knew the tune - yikes - I must be even older than I thought! Anyway, I hope it gets stuck in your head - maybe that will get it out of mine. February 14, 2011 at 1:19 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

WoodWorkWoman: Power Tools!
http://www.woodworkwoman.com/2011/01/power-tools.html
Sunday, January 30, 2011. I confess: I love power tools. My Cousin Vinnie -. Especially in the scene where she is on the witness stand in that fabulous backless purple dress and, with a little smirk and flick of the wrist, demolishes the prosecution's automobile expert witness. Monday starts with a brief surprise visit from Dan Packard. Here are some photos of Dan speaking to our class. We are about to begin transferring our paper and cardboard designs to the boards we so lovingly purchased at Edensaw.

WoodWorkWoman: Epic Fail!
http://www.woodworkwoman.com/2011/02/epic-fail.html
Monday, February 21, 2011. Anyway, I noticed that Melanya - a very talented young woman woodworker and boatbuilder - would say "Fail! Or, once in awhile, "Epic Fail! In a mock-alarmed, tongue-in-cheek sort of way on the rare occasions that something didn't come out quite as perfectly as she'd intended. It struck me as an ideal expression - economical, slightly self-deprecating, and funny. I've adopted it and have had many occasions to use it lately. Building the Shaker Table. By week's end, I've finished...

WoodWorkWoman: The Doldrums
http://www.woodworkwoman.com/2011/03/doldrums.html
Monday, March 21, 2011. There comes a time in most of my journeys - the novelty-has-worn-off, bloom-is-off-the rose, honeymoon-is-over time - when I find myself muttering “Why the hell am I doing this anyway? When sailing to the South Pacific, it happened in the infamous Intertropical Convergence Zone. 8211; the ITCZ – or simply “The Doldrums.”. The incessant hum of the diesel engine, the oppressive heat, the random gunshot of the drooping mainsail snapping violently from port to starboard with every.

WoodWorkWoman: Greeks and Shakers
http://www.woodworkwoman.com/2011/02/greeks-and-shakers.html
Sunday, February 6, 2011. Time has vaporized and my fourth week at Port Townsend School of Woodworking is done. It seems utterly impossible that we are already a third of the way through the 12-week program. So much new material was packed into the week's five days that I could not possibly cram it all into one blog post, plus I haven't even finished writing about week 3 yet! I'm quite a slow writer so, rather than merely touching on many subjects, I'm going to focus (mostly) on one today, namely:. I am ...

WoodWorkWoman: Winding Sticks
http://www.woodworkwoman.com/2011/01/winding-sticks.html
Sunday, January 16, 2011. I can't believe how fast the week flew by. This time of year (i.e. not rowing season) I usually walk with some of my Tuf As Nails rowing crew at 6:30 on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. But Wednesday night I set my alarm for 7:00 AM, thinking the NEXT day was Wednesday. I didn't figure out it was Thursday morning until I looked at my phone. Sorry ladies - I'll try to do better this week! In the course of constructing a pair of. The purpose of which I will explain presently. In tha...
