I think I learned my lesson about batching stuff. I made a desk for one kid from 2x4 but was playing with draw boring. 32 pins. Made to stand without pins, I drilled the mortices, assembled it up, squared it, marked them all and took a picture. The next day I took it apart and bored all the tenons. 31 of them bored on the wrong side of the line. Went and bought a new bottle of glue.

I just noticed the screw in the crochet. That’s a nice feature.

Apology for not knowing. Sorry

no apology necessary. It's complicated and unless you've been following the trajectory of Alexander's career, how would you know? I first met JA as John in 1980. She transitioned very late in life...
