Yearly Archives: 2003
Went home over the weekend. Did some welding. Decided to build a cd rack.
Mostly done. The structural bits are finished, just need to do the cosmetic bits
(strip/grind/sand/primer/paint/etc). Will have to wait till this weekend probably.
Could of used a better way to cut steel than a angle grinder and a cut
off wheel. That doesn’t make for the most accurate cuts and helped
contribute to some of the “character” of the result. Definately need
a plasma cutter. Or at least a reciporacting saw. And a new angle
grinder. Sounds like a trip to
Northern Tool is in order. Or maybe a chop saw. Or perhaps a
metal band saw (that being a band saw to cut metal, not a saw to
cut metal bands…). Wonder if a band saw manufactor ever considered
getting, say, Slayer to endorse them. Hell, I’d buy a band saw endorsed
by Slayer.
Many possibilities for loss of money and fingers abound.

I heart disassociation.
Lots of handy bookmarklets, for web dev and web browsing. cookie
zapping, style sheet munging, making web forms sane sizes, etc…
cd’s of the day/week/whatever…
Robert Fripp/Trey Gunn/Bill Rifflin – The Repuercussions of Angelic Behaviour
(hmmm, fripp + noisy improv…)
Quicksand – Slip
(for some reason, been listening to this alot recently…)
The Nels Cline Singers – Instrumentals
(begining to see why Nels Cline is the guitar du jour on weird cds
as of late…)
I just felt the need to share that.
Didn’t do much over the weekend. Finished a big drawing friday, went and bought
random books saturday, and carved up carving experiment #3. I’ll soon get my
wood carving merit badge.
