What did you accomplish today?

Today I finished assembling a shoe rack I've been building for the boy. It's my first project in 1/4-inch ply, and I learned a lot about the special demands of that material. One of my big mistakes was using 14-round molding to locate and reinforce the shelves. I know how I'll do it next time so i can avoid false savings in labor. That lower shelf is not a point of pride.

I used teenytiny brads and a tool sized to the task :)

I'll use small wood screws to stabilize it some more. Some sanding and then a coat of white enamel and we'll have a shoe rack.

~pics won't upload for some reason~
 
The only thing I accomplished today was taking a mid-day nap. Probably my first since the baby came. It was fucking awesome.
 
Starting my first seeds,still paranoid, pried open the starter pods and looked inside, ones doing great and the other two arent dead yet, :hump:

Alright man, breath. They will do their thing, observe but don't obsess. Be diligent on odor control, sound, and loose lips. And light leaks, at this point I mean having any light glowing in your place where someone could see it. Welcome to RIU. Good Luck and Happy Growing!
 
Just finished flooding the vegetables, watered the beds, chased the pitbull around with a leaf blower :) ,did my daily walk thru of the grnhouse, and finally fed/foliar'd the veg room ~

Knocked one off the list I've been neglecting for acouple months. Maybe years. The steps to one of the apartment decks were sagging a good 2 inches on one side due to ground erosion. I borrowed my buddy's jack and jacked them up and put some gravel and a few bricks under the one stringer and some new deck screws at the top. Good as new and feeling pretty damn accomplished.
