Went to the dentist office yesterday to move a desk and make r fit.

The left section of the desk had already been moved. The center and right had to be modified.

Cut the center down from about 50" in length to 40" and put a miter on the cherry roundover at the front of the desk.

The right section with the curve went from 60" in length to 45", had to cut off the roundover edging and do a miter notch and then cut out a section on the right side so it would wrap the wall.

Of course the bottom support structure needed to be cut and holes cut into it for access to the electrical and data connection.

Took about 4 hours to take the desk from it original resting place, disassemble it, cut it up and fit it and then reassemble.

Might be the angle, might be the gun. Either way I'm too used to seeing it now to think it looks odd. Here's a pic of it after it was found out at the farm. It's extremely light. There's another one out at the farm that's slightly different. Got a longer barrel. The one we worked on might have been cut down. Hard to know though, it's 75 years old and the family member that bought it died around 15 years ago.

Framing going up on our ranch custom

Electric company has been putting my brother off on those high line's forever. About to hold up framing the roof, but it sounds like he got them to put a rush on it. He's had to go from one person to the other to get it done, he hasn't learned the art of sweet talk or leverage yet. Lol

We are as bad as clients with changing our minds - they were setting up ribbon curbs and we were going to add road base and gravel between for roads at the shop.

My old man and i walked out and looked at it at lunch said phuck it and told them to pour the driveway and parking solid concrete. Hate to spend another 15k or whatever he charges but I dont have time to set it up and I hate road maintenance i have enough of it at home
