Mondays

Mondays are always tough due to late work meetings that run into even later phone calls with a team of engineers in China. By the time I get home the sun has set and I've only got a half hour before it gets too dark to work outside.

I made the most of my time and cut my lid and side panels.

Dry fit is looking good. I might have wanted the grain to run the other direction but I wasn't thinking of that when I asked the home depot guy to cut it to a size that would fit in my pickup (read Mazda 3).

I spent the remainder of the evening staining said panels. I wish Jackie was here to take this shot, the lighting was tough and I know she'd take a better photo. You will have to deal with the reflection and the fact that I could not make the colour look right.

Tomorrow I should be able to get home in a better time and get the mitre saw out.
