This past weekend I got a nice warm feeling...like I wanted to try some work around the house.
So, I bought some lumber 2 x 3 and had the boys volunteer to fix a broken picnic table.
They started out with lots of enthusiasum but found the job needed special cuts on the legs.
Once they finished it looked good....just leaning a little to one side.
I started off by replacing a screen on the storm door. Our new dog kept jumping up on the door and put his paws thru an missing jelosy window pane....punching out the screening.
After I fixed the screen I took a couple upper door panes and put them down low....we hope to replace the door soon.
Then a old time basement wooden window pane was broken and I fixed that.
Actually, it took 3 hrs. Why? because the window cutting man at ACE decided to cut according to my request....it was off by an inch.
I tried measuring the old way from the 1" line to get a better more accurate measurement.
Of course I forgot to subtract the extra inch.
Can't wait until next weekend.
