Long time, no post

Yes, I know it's been a while since I posted something, mostly because I feel like I don't have much of interest going on. So, last night I helped my friend Mike build a manger for a Christmas display at their house, and here's what it looks like:
Assembled...




And ready for storage...

We got to make use of a new toy that I picked up a few weeks ago... a 26-gallon air compressor and a nail gun set (a brad nailer, a finish nailer, and a stapler). Those nail guns are SOOOO much fun to use. If it hadn't been for Mike wanting to sand the pieces before assembly (I guess to keep his 2 kids from getting splinters or something silly like that), we would have had that thing knocked out in about 30 minutes.
