From yesterday stuck down the templates onto the MDF blanks for cutting out. Trim off the main excess on the 14″ bandsaw, then some more on the 8″ bandsaw then the rest on the scroll saw.

Another busy day with bats flying out the door but still feel like I’m threading water. This morning released a pair in the direction of Warragul – safe trip guys.
Did some more work on jobs then off on the usual Monday shopping trip including posting those two bats to Warragul I was surprised that 2 x Bats @ 1,2kg was $15.35 when last time 1 x Bat @ 0.6kg cost over $18. Thanks to Holly (see next photo) I packed the items so well there was no need for one of their pricey bags (y)
Back home and out again to do some more including cutting more MDF blanks. After tea ended up doing two hours overtime to catch up a bit – with heaters on.

More rain coming get mowing done.
With more rain on the way first job on the list this morning was to get the mowing done. Grass has grown to that point where poo bombs are too hard to spot from a safe distance (in particular when it’s raining) before going out there to collect…:-)
