F**K LOST

(The above post title is a piece of graffiti I saw last night alongside the Squill VFW)

But, yeah, islands. Or Peninsulas.  Big step toward the goal posts.

Checking the layout

Prepping to secure them for leveling

Screwing them to each other to take half the leveling work away.

So, knowing cool people who make stuff is great.  Especially when they buy supplies to make stuff, get distracted making different stuff, and pass the supplies on to you.  Here is a maple butcher block I obtained via a post on FB for my friend's costs, which was so cheap that I couldn't have done it cheaper making one myself, out of lower-quality oak. like, by 50%.

Practicing the cut. In this version, I am actually off by 4 inches on the cut line, because I am dumb sometimes.

Using my 4 foot level as a fence.

Roughed in around the post. 

I didn't take a picture of the sanding tent yet.  More to come in the next couple of days.
