Our friend Kerri () has finished the Bronze sign that we made for her. She’s applied her choice of finish, added translucent acrylic and LED lighting. We’re so glad to have been a part of this project.

A non making day today. Trying to see the wood from the fibreboard so to speak; looking at things I would like or need to do, and list them, also have a little tidy up too. -Sarah-

Rerurrected an old POF500a to cut a 5mm mortice into the back of three sections of this cabinet as this is how it was built originally. Using a nice new Trend CraftPro cutter.
