Progress

A number of my projects are seeing good progress.

The transparent mirror (one way mirror) for the mirror project was received in one piece, although it is tinted, which I did not want at all. Hopefully it'll still work out.

I've successfully removed the front bezel from the laptop frame (after discovering small star-head screws under the rubber nubbins on the frame). And I've started to cut out the wooden box frame to mount the laptop in behind the frame. I'll check Michaels for a decent cheap frame that I like, and if not successful there I'll build one from a nice wood - poplar or cherry.

Dad and I started on the barn on Saturday. Actually he had already dug the holes and poured in concrete for the footers last week. I plan on setting up a project page dedicated to the barn raising, with a progression of pictures that I've been taking. So far it's been a safe working environment with only a few scrapes, banged fingers, and occasional non-OSHA-approved ladder use.
