weekend update

so decent weekend. coached the 14's in the skyline earlybird tourney. we went 2-4 on saturday putting us in silver bracket. great thing is we were not last in the pool. sunday lost a close 3set match to put us into the 5th place match. come to find out, the team won that match and took 5th in the silver bracket. not gold, and not 1st, but quite a ways from last. so happy times. i hope that this can drive some confidence into this team. i was very proud.

bought my drill press today. that much closer to making custom pens. just need a few more supplies and i will be churning out Christmas presents in no time. also over the end of last week, i figured out a way to make a at home grinder to work on razors. i need to make a few more pieces to do different size blades, but i got a great start.

child is sick. she has strep. my throat has been bothering me as well, so i will be going to the dr. tomorrow. missing another day at work. bummer for me and my sickdays. 2 down and not even through january.

stay tuned

longtime, new site a coming

so it's been a while. i will try to be better this year about posting. i am starting a new site and business restoring straight razors and making custom shave brushes. i will be using this site and that one to hopefully explore my creativity.

i purchased a lathe this year and have been having a blast with it. created some cool brushes, a few bowls, and some other nic nacs. i have to justify the time spent playing with the money i can get back out of it.

also this year i hope to start making custom pens and pencils. mostly as gifts and some small income, but nothing i can retire off of.

family is wonderful. check out the family site to the right. wife keeps that one pretty well updated. new pics and family offerings and such.

have a great day.
