What a week it was, this last week. On Monday I had a\u2026 By Wednesday\u2026 And then, come Friday, well\u2026 Suffice to say, disaster struck repeatedly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gaaah!!!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This second breaking of the second snare drum – fool that I am I tried flattening it using the thicknessing machine (way too brutal!) – was the worst yet, because bits of shell, albeit only time fragments, vanished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The four pics above are from after the latest shell glue-up. There are small bits of both the inner and outer farces that have chipped off. Less disastrous in the inside, perhaps? The larger chunk missing on the outer face might be more of a problem?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several dowels popped out, as well. I had to gently tap them back into position. One or two are still not 100% flush. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These were stuck in the nut\u2026 jammed fast!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Today I finally got the over-tightened nut on my router loose. It took literally days<\/em> of effort. But dogged perseverance eventually triumphed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These arrived today.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A couple of days ago a collet adapter – 12\u201d to 8mm – arrived, via Amazon. And then today the above set of six router bits dropped thru\u2019 the letterbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
