The fish tank stand is nearly done. All of the structural pieces are complete, including the dividers between the sections. This is remarkable progress, but it only makes it harder to wait for it to be deposited in its final location. The drawers below the bookshelves are assembled, only needing guides to be complete.

I was hoping to save this up until the fish tank stand was finished, but that seems so far away that I’m going to do a progress post anyway. I keep buying stuff for the aquarium, stuff that won’t spoil anyway. Last month I picked up some driftwood on sale. I guess the delay is [...] A decade ago, a coworker and I picked up some goldfish and a 2 gallon tank. Over time, and with a lot of trial and error, I now have 2 stable fish tanks. One is a long 30 gallon and is home to a few tetras, a pair of cories and a single Opaline gourami [...] I’ve finally finished the bookshelf that I built with my father. I’d put off staining or sealing it because I was paranoid about my ability to get a nice, even stain applied. My success on previous projects was directly proportional to the color I picked – the darker the stain, the worse I applied it. [...] Some days I feel like Ahab, frantically trying to find and slay the great white whale. Others, there is the realism of Ishmael as he tries to cope with the insanity that slowly burgeons around him. It is no accident that we’ve named this workbench the Great White Whale. |
