It was a real hit with Asger (7) since deliberately bending nails was a sort of forbidden thing. He has later commented on me clenching some nails for a door, that they looked like the ones he made.<br /><br />I already checked out your blog :-) My parents had the same jobs as you, sloyd and home economics. So that is one powerful combination.<br /><br />I like to make small projects that involves the children, but I normally don't make a test piece first. After all my "class" is only 2 pupils. <br />Your idea of making a test piece before attempting an entire class to make the project is a good idea. I am sure it saves a lot of frustration and commotion in the class.<br /><br />Happy New Year<br />Brgds<br />JonasJonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-6899697930087242082014-01-02T19:14:48.414-08:002014-01-02T19:14:48.414-08:00Our blog can be found at http://colinandtanith.blo...Our blog can be found at http://colinandtanith.blogspot.ca/ if you want to check it out!Tanith and Colinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09993959916933913088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-48368878770812903742014-01-02T19:13:57.245-08:002014-01-02T19:13:57.245-08:00Nice work on the cabinet!

It's a decent little cabinet, I also opted to omit the clenched nails on the door as I didn't like how they looked. <br />I teach Industrial Arts in Saskatchewan but am originally from Nova Scotia in Canada. <br />Nice pictures of the North Sea, you've been in some fairly heavy weather.

But I suppose that also depends on how wet it is. It splits rather easily, but otherwise it is nice Wood to Work in my opinion. The top of the workbench is made out of larch as well.<br /><br />Due to some disagreements regarding if one should wear a sweater while in the workshop, the building is temporarily on hold until we achieve a common understanding of the clothing issue. <br /><br />In addition to this the entire weekend has been in the sign of moto cross. And just as I thought I could have a break from the maintenance of the bike, the seal on the left front fork leg has started to leak.

I have the same plan and I've thought about making it but I'm not sure where I would use it. By the way, that's a nice work bench you have made there. <br />BillAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-60981835107023966392013-04-06T13:19:10.002-07:002013-04-06T13:19:10.002-07:00The verb stall is not a good one, at least not in ...The verb stall is not a good one, at least not in moto cross. Unless off course, that it is someone else who is stalling.<br /><br />I had a "fabulous" day today: Being a flag official at the Danish quad motocross championship on a dry dusty track. strong winds and a temperature of 3 dgC (probably 37 fahrenheit). We had a small shower and also a little snow just to remind us of how nice it would have been to stay at home in the workshop. On top of it all, the race was rather boring.
