Happiness is…

… finally having enough clamps.

Lee Valley has a sale on boxes of 10 clamps, and I broke down and bought some.

I can’t believe how much easier it is to do basic tasks when you have the equipment for it. It took me less than an hour to put this crate together, from first cut to dry glue. That would have been a multi-day job with the 2 too-small bar clamps I previously owned. This is a storage box / bench seat for the Living History weekend camp coming up. I’ll cover the nailgun holes with some putty and paint, and we’re good to go.

Now I am jealous. Ah the smell of sawdust and wood glue…
