'retirement project'

 i tried the 'retirement thing' once before,

back in 2018 ...

but for many reasons back then it didn't 'stick',

and i spent the next 6 years working with and mentoring

our nephew Kristian Moore, who is now taking

on the new furniture projects that come our way ...

at this point, he can do anything i can do,

only he can do it better !

my 'executive function' has left the building, and,

i realize that at 77 it ain't coming back. 

so, what to do with all that free time since my 'last project'

 well, i guess you can't have too many buildings, and Will 

is taking up quite a lot of space in Sam's shop

with the mills and lathes for his banjo business.

to be located just outside of Sam's shop

so, here we go!

this one will likely be the last building at 

the 'west dorset industrial park'

below, the rafters will start to go up tomorrow!

nothing like three weeks of concrete and carpentry

to make you feel your age ...
