I occasionally look in to the forum but don't get much time these days. Happy belated anniversary. It looks like I joined in 2010 in December so will celebrate my 14th year at that point.

On January 13, 2023 Russell Morash announced the availability of episodes on YouTube. After giving a tour of the New Yankee Workshop Morash ended the video by stating, "We are thrilled to know that YouTube is now showing The New Yankee episodes to a whole new generation of people who may have somehow missed out the first time it was around, and now they're available anytime you tune to YouTube and want to watch a feast of woodworking. It's all there and it's all for you to enjoy and I certainly hope you do." Until September 5, 2022, episodes of The New Yankee Workshop were available to stream on NewYankee.com and through the This Old House Insider subscription service. Project plan PDFs were also available with the Insider subscription. It was announced that the license agreement between Morash Assoc., Inc. WGBH Educational Foundation, Linnor, Inc. and This Old House Ventures, LLC (parent company Roku, Inc.) had expired and episodes would no longer be available through This Old House So head over to the YouTube channel to get your fix of Norm. Some of the videos have been upscaled to 1080p60 HD https://www.youtube.com/@newyankeeworkshop

Congratulations Ken. Have a great celebration.

Wow with a capital W. The imperial gallon is slightly more than a US gallon at roughly 4.5 litres to a gallon. Even so we are being fleeced hand over fist here and have been since the start of motoring. Price of a litre of E10 petrol (10% ethanol - the rest is regular unleaded) today is about £1.61 GBP or $2.02 USD So 2.02 multiplied by 3.8 equalling $7.67 a US gallon.

My car has a 70 litre tank (not sure how many US gallons that is) and last time I filled up a couple of weeks back it cost £100 GBP. At todays currency exchange rate that equates to $125 USD. We in the UK have always had more expensive gas (petrol) than the US but recent events have pushed the cost up massively.

Beautiful cabinet.

I have planned: A shoe cabinet - urgent as requested by my wife! A chest of drawers - I have some fancy face lumber that is well dried A small book case - sapele to match some night stands I made a few years back A short scale electric bass guitar - around 28 to 30 " scale length with active electronics An acoustic guitar - something like a Martin D28 And that will probably do for now.

I love the sign above the door

I remember Millennium Eve all those years ago. I was working in the IT department for our local international airport, Manchester UK, on the Y2K bug which we had been working on for about 18 months prior to make sure planes didn't fall out of the air. I went in at 11:30PM after leaving a party and with about 40 others sat monitoring screens when the clock struck midnight. Needless to say nothing happened except we could hear loads of fireworks. The airport had been closed to all air traffic at 6PM and didn't open up again until 6AM the following morning. We "celebrated" the success and turning of the year with a plastic cup containing a few teaspoons of warm cheap fizzy wine! Not good. I couldn't see anything as the server hall doesn't have any windows and only heard the bangs when I came out after midnight back into the office. Every year now around here there are firework displays on new years mostly from peoples private houses. A lot of public displays have been cancelled this last new years due to Covid issues but that didn't stop people having them in their yards.

I need to get me some birds eye plywood. Project looking good. Is it inspired by Marc Spags sheetgood thingummy he had in one of his shops years ago?

I still vow not to have any new years resolutions..... Failed again!!!

It was Venus according to Stellarium.

I went there many years ago and went over to Nantucket on the trip too. Beautiful part of the country.
