There’s an old adage that you can never have enough clamps. Personally I’ve never been fond of adages; I generally find them to be a shortcut to actually thinking. I almost uttered “you can never have enough clamps” when finishing this glue up. But I have plenty of clamps left over so that can’t be a true statement. Instead I was left wondering why I seem to have no more than 4 clamps of any size or length that match. Good news is that the drawers are almost done and I can start on fit and finish shortly.

This Weekend’s Stylus Work
In between all of the other shop activities, I turned out a few new stylus (styli?) this weekend. The walnut one was from leftover wood used for a concert poster frame. The cherry one was from an old cherry table that couldn’t be salvaged (how could I let that lumber go to waste). The maple one comes from the drawers sides / backs that I was working on this weekend. All proudly displayed on my Dodo Case of course…
