Summary

The first day that I worked this week, I spent all day organizing the tool room to make all the tools more accessible and easier to locate.  Also I spent a good amount of time scraping glue off of clamps to make them easier to use.  The next day was spent figuring out how to yield the most shelves that I could out of typical 4’x8’ sheets of plywood and not have so much waste.  The next day was spent finishing the shelves as well as starting to mill down lumber to make the drawer fronts for the cabinets.
