My mom has an akita that is old but gets along pretty good. Mom keeps misplacing the dog leash so I thought if I hang this from the wall near the door, mom will have a place to keep the leash.

It's made from 5/8" cherry with plywood backer. One coat of BLO and will put a couple coats of poly on it tomorrow if the BLO is cured by then.

Hope all goes well. You will be glad for the surgery. Just remember to put the drops in your eyes after the surgery as instructed by the doctor.

As for the healthcare, just tell the doctors you are in this country illegally and you will get free healthcare.

Not a name, but along the same lines, my son was about 4 he said, "I see a robin." My neighbor asked how he knew it was a robin. He said, "It's brown and has a red belly, and a yellow dick." I said, "I think he means beak."

As for names, my best friend in high school dated Holly Wood. Another friend went to school with Shanda Lear. And another friend had a sister named Crystal who was dating Charlie Ball, but they never got married.

Nice cutting. I like the way you did the frame.

Tobacco sticks can be made from lots of different woods, but are usually local woods. I'm pretty sure your frame is spalted maple. Maple is very popular in Kentucky.

I wouldn't think there would be a problem. I might be mistaken but I think the border patrol checks to make sure that you are crossing the border legally and you have no contraband. If the question is about paying taxes on the item, if he has a receipt for the purchase, I think he would be alright.

Does the screw go into the ipod?   Thanks for sharing with us.

The screw does not go into the iPod or the connector. It just puts pressure on the connector to keep it from sliding out when you remove the iPod. I use a USB cable and made it so if I need, I can loosen the screw and pull the cable out through the top.

Brag Forum / iPod Docking
« on: February 02, 2013, 05:34:38 pm »
After seeing Steve Good's iPod 5 docking station I decided to make one for my iPod Touch. Great project to make from some scraps. One thing I didn't want to do is glue my USB cable to the docking station, so I thought I'd try something a little different. I put some small blocks on the bottom of the slot where the cable goes through to support the connector from the bottom. The real challenge was keeping the connector/cable in place when I removed the iPod. I drilled a small hole and used a small wood screw to clamp it. So far it seems like it will work. Over time the screw will probably come loose. If I do this again, I'll look for some hardware to glue in the hole then put the screw in.

There's no finish on it. It's made from cherry.

Thanks for looking.
