Woodworking Update

(top: the shop. bottom: the train)
I’ve graduated from sanding to more general apprentice tasks: screwing, drilling, use of table, band, and radial arm saws, etc. I’ve also (with supervision) begun creating projects in a start-to-finish kind of way. This is what I love. I’m working on a table. I made two little househould organizer things. And I helped with this train. Most of the planning was done, but I got to make a few decisions about execution (and see the smokestack? I cut that flare by hand!). There's a bench inside for the engineer.

What powers that train? I hope it runs on clean coal!
