Yeh, I understand :) that's exactly why Carol had to change. ;)
Unfortunately,

"After 10 years of servicing, January 14, 2020, is the last day Microsoft will offer security updates for computers running Windows 7 SP1"

I should have got 10 when it was free, I understand you didn't have to install it right away. Looks like a OEM version is going to cost me around $100 or $150 for Pro.

Each shelf was carefully slid into place and checked for position, then checked again.

In about a half hour, I will go back out and screw them into place for added strength. Next comes the back panels. :D

Then... ;) ... Drawers and drawer fronts.

I have been taking them...
I'm dying to share them.
Can't until I get the new desktop up and running, hopefully this weekend.
Only so much I can do with a fire.

You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

Made a mistake... Had to back up, disassemble (no disassemble Johnny five,) and move forward again.
Only a 1/16 error, and it's only a project for the safe, noone would know.
I... I would know and it would bug the c.r.a.p out of me.
So... Disassemble.

Not like I am pressed for time. :P

That is why I keep checking and rechecking as l go. It's not always easy to back up after you glue and clamp and start forward...
... But if you discover an error two or three steps farther in... You sometimes have to scrap the whole thing and start again. :evil:
That is a real bummer. Usually these small errors occur when clamp pressure causes something to slip just a bit. :?

Hope the dis-assembly area was not glued yet, and...yes, the 1/16 if correctable, I would do as well. Would bug me too! :D
Like you...I have plenty of time these days!

Update...

Nothing to report since my mistake... ;)

Was going right back at it yesterday, but Miss T woke up ill. Most of you know how that goes. Call the doc, show up early to go over the same ol paperwork they have had for a quarter century... We are old... Then, wait... We are patients, right? See the doc... Get the script, go to the drug store. More waiting. Since everything is at least a half hour drive for us... You know where yesterday went. Her meds make her sleepy and unable to drive and she has a meeting an hour away today, and another Saturday.

I'm hoping to get shop time in around chauffeur duties. Oh... The computer is supposed to be ready today but may be Monday.
:P

Hope all goes well and Miss T feels better quickly. Your description of Dr visits is spot on! ;)
