Got the door and the plexiglass installed. The shelves are tight but fit just fine.

Finished the post. (If it can be engineered, I can over-engineer it!) I'll put in a bunch of bolts through the bottom of the case into the cross pieces to secure it once the post has been planted.

Also test fitting the door. All good.

#LittleFreeLibrary
The post that will support the Little Free Library. The case will be secured to the cross pieces on the post with some bolts driven through the bottom of the case. I'm also test fitting the door. It fits well.

This is my post. ...about my post.

The post that is going to support my next Little Free Library.

#LittleFreeLibrary
Test measuring the Little Free Library supports on the post. The fit looks good. Getting ready to attach the wings to the post.

Joints and edges are sealed. A light sanding and it'll be time to prime it.

On to the door.

The shell of a Little Free Library. I've pushed sealant into the edges and joints.

Still building a Little Free Library. Got the top on and checking the fit of the side posts. The hinges for the door will go into the side posts.

First day in the shop building another Little Free Library. Construction adhesive and a few screws will hold the box together for a lifetime.
#LittleFreeLibrary
The "box" put together for a Little Free Library. The white on the sides is construction adhesive. That was left over from tightening the screws. But I do smear that into the edges of the plywood to seal them.

Getting ready to build another Little Free Library. Rough cutting guide for the hardware store. I was hoping to get all this in a 4x4 sheet of BCX. But all they had were 4x8 sheets of plywood. Might make two.

I finished planking the hull. Now for a little filler and sanding. And then some more sanding. And maybe a bit more sanding. And finally some finishing sanding (like three times). Then I get to see if it's smooth and add some more filler and start sanding again.

#woodshipmodel #shipmodel #Rainbow
A wooden ship model hull on a workboard, mostly coated with filler. Getting ready for sanding when it dries. I use a discarded credit card for pushing the filler into any seams or gaps, and then scraping it down.

No disrespect to the great IT people at my workplace, but this is how I feel each time I delete an obvious phishing test.
Cartoon: In the first panel, an IT person tells a person behind a desk, "Because you failed the phishing test eight times..." In the second panel, the IT person continues, "we are replacing your PC with this Etch-a-Sketch." In the third panel, the person behind the desk says, "I like this delete option!" while shaking the Etch-a-Sketch.
