I knew it had been a while since I cleaned the laser exhaust. Take a look at this. This is not a bee honeycomb. This is the intake/inlet for my large fume exhaust fan for the laser. It was totally caked full! The holes you see are from where I poked it!
I spent some time with a nylon brush and even took the whole fan casing apart to clean the fan blades. This was long overdue. Don't be like me...don't wait so long.

My neighbor has this travel camper they’re fixing up. They wanted me to remake their sink covers & cutting boards that were plastic with walnut ones. They turned out so good!

I really like the way this walnut and maple teardrop serving board turned out. It was a custom order for a customer and is about 17” in diameter. Huge!
My holly bush and fire bush are putting out some Christmas feels in the 1st photo. Out the door it goes!

I've been a little low-key over here lately. I've been reflecting on the year, looking back at what I accomplished and what I didn't, and planning for the new year. What do I want to accomplish this year? What business goals should I shoot for? I think it's important to reflect, not just once a year, but at the end of the year, it's a good time for it.
Last night, we grabbed some champagne and poured the kids some sparkling cider, and we all gave toasts to the new year and things we want to see happen. It was fun to get the kids involved in dreaming and reflecting.
I hope you have had some time to reflect on your year and dream of what this new year will bring. I think it's going to be a great one. Happy New Year!
