FTP, I hardly knew ye.

Apparently I'm in rare company, 0.5% of active Blogger pages are published to private web space. Sounds like if I didn't have mine, it'd be 0.4%.

So here's one of my final posts to http://customizedsolutions.org/blog

I made a TV stand in my apartment kitchen last spring. Here's some pictures:

It all came out of a piece of oak, 10' x 1' x 3/4".

Record Storage.

I'm back in the shop for the first time in a while. I'm getting warmed up with this smaller project before I make a desk and a large set of shelves.

This will hold 6 linear feet of records. The box internal dimensions are 29" x 13" x 13".

I tried a dry fit, assembled dry fit, then glued them up.

I'm giving a new template a try. My old hacked up CSS never displayed properly of Fire Fox.

Some new projects are going to be started very soon. I'll update the blog with my progress.

A forgotten gem.

The Barber Roselea Senior Center is part of the Columbus Department of Recreation and Parks. The building has always intrigued me as I'd catch glimpses of it from Croswell Rd. I finally decided to walk down and take a look. It's a very interesting building. I'd say it's a mix of 1930s and 1950s.

Even the side entrance is interesting


I couldn't find anything online about it's history. It's not clear if it was purpose built for the parks system or if it served a purpose before.
* A MILESTONE - MY 100th POST *

This is an interesting desk at a neighborhood thrift shop. The extra legs provide stability, an additional visual element and don't affect the leveling of the table because they don't contact the floor.

This is another non-furniture related post. This weekend marks the fifth anniversary of my graduation from Ohio University's MBA program. August 20th and 22nd have never been the same since. Congratulations to me and to every OU MBA past and present.
