I went out to Home Depot and bought a Ryobi miter saw; a Black and Decker folding stand, and a Diablo medium cutting blade, good for ripping 2x4's.
I'm going to spend the weekend reading the owners manual and figuring out where not to put my hands, as I have kinda gotten use to having fingers. Pictures soon.
See what happens when I get a four day weekend?
Friday: Black and Decker Workbench put together.

Nothing is going on...
Ok, I got an A in my welding class. :)
And was already to sign up for the next one, when two things happened simultaneously:
First: The next class for the welding sequence did not 'make' i.e. have enough people sign up for the class to be listed, hence it was cancelled. So, I considered signing up for the class held at our branch an hour away...
When
Second: I lost two employees in the same week. Half my staff! The first got very ill and we are all keeping this person in our thoughts and prayers, with a hope to have them back at work on March 18th after spring break. The Second person just earned a Masters in Library Science and quickly found a job paying WAY more then here, so that's employee #two out the door.
Result: A six day work week with hours ranging between 50 to 60 hours; I haven't been able to work on anything but paying bills and keeping the house half clean.
Good news: The new person starts tomorrow!
The bad news, I'm still on the long shifts until I have the new person trained up, sometime in April.
