Most recent night first.
The ProjectNight.com web slave is currently working in Yakima Washington, planting trees around the shore of an old gravel pit lake, and on one of the floating islands. Sporadic reports at BuchananLake.com
9 April 2008: Matt's shop
Rudolph Steiner was mentioned. From that edge of the universe of knowledge, the expedition went farther out fast, leaving the shop tools idle but the brew supply diminishing. They seem to have found their way back, but they brought knowledge not common to many conversations, and that might frighten those who do not question what they are told.
There was the demonstration of the new get-out-of-the-way mortise and tenon joint making machine. Wow. The shop toy making industry is on full voltage.
Then there was the ski pole basket transfer project, putting good old baskets onto the red ski poles found in the dumpster, from the broken blue ski poles found in the dumpster. That required a little heat from the heat gun, and some Old 55 from Silver Gulch Brewery.
Well of course the 5.4 million year old lignitized wood project came out, for the photo, and was then put back. Sometimes the appearance of the project is the project. At least it did not get lost at the edge of the universe during that conversation.
2 April: Jon's Machine Shop.
Sure good thing the frayed snow scoop showed up, needing a couple pop rivets, or that whisky sitting on the 105 mm recoilless rifle shell would have been the only project that got done.
But there was no small volume of pontificating on profound concepts, all ascribed to the archives.
However, the web slave is uploading this report more than a week later, while sitting in the ice shack of the AlaskanAlpineClub.org Web Cam on John Reeves' Ice Tower, so the archives are not at hand, so that's the full report.
26 March 2008:
Duff's shop
A sheet of plywood was painted white, for a sign. Start to finish, completed project, white. Arduous project. Barely got it done by the time we left the shop. Several of us were required to carefully examine the paint, and insure that it dried at a uniform rate.
The dart throwing project slowed some other projects.
The northern lights were whipping around the sky, which required observation time.
There was much discussion of spring garden planting, and why the drill press was not working as preferred.
All manner of other projects were greatly advanced to near completion, or not so near completion.
The camera guy was
sent up to the shop headquarters to photograph the progress on
new kitchen counter back tile project being pursued by three of
the project night folks during this Project Night. The tile is
brown.
The process and progress are revealed in the photos. But apparently the planning was advanced, not unlike the projects back down at the shop.
