I've had a few mishaps but nothing like that. I bet that hurt!

I made a cabinet for our motorhome using pine and tried to stain it to match the cherry woodwork in there.
I found out I could not match the stain or find a paint that was even close, so this Winter I decided to get
some cherry and build it again. It turned out cherry was hard to get and I finally got the cherry veneer plywood
last week. Now to find a varnish that matches as well. today I filled all the brad holes and did some sanding. It
depends how much snow we get, but I hope to sand some more tomorrow.

My shop is heavily insulated and has a furnace and AC. I can work in there year around. I love it.

Nice setup, Coop. I'm envious.
I built mine myself, insulated all around, wired it for 240, got AC ,
portable heat.
Just outgrown the dang thing.

I think the big lake you refer to is Mille Lacs. It's 14 miles wide at the widest and 17 miles north to south.
Have fished it many times but under a treaty one of our stalwart politicians negotiated, the Indians are
allowed to net walleyes, while no one else can. Supposed to be subsistence only, but don't believe that.
It used to be a great lake to fish, now we call it the "Dead Sea". :x
Coop, Pokeagma or something like that.
Is where Dave's place is.

I remember a Stinson automotive just east of the Brooklyn park area, I think it was between 2 golf courses. But it’s been a while.
His place is in Minneapolis, Stinson Blvd.

That's actually one of our smaller lakes.

Located 5 miles West of Pine City, Pokegama Lake is part of the Snake River watershed. The Lake is 1,474 acres in size, about 3 miles long and up to 1 mile wide. It runs North and South, with a shoreline of 10.6 miles. It has 2 public landings, one on the North end and one on the South.

His place is on the West side, believe they've had the place since the 70's.
We've had a couple small gatherings there back in Oct. of '18, & '19.
There's been talk of a third, so who knows.
I really like the Wings north faciality, and Chad is a super host.
