It's pretty visible up close, it is far from being square.I'm going to have to take your word on it. It still isn't visible in the pic. Maybe in person or maybe you're just so precise no one would see it.

Nothing yet.It works. Square or not.
BTW, what do you stash in the nest boxes?
Yeah, you never know. It was 0 degrees here last night but it's supposed to hit the mid- thirties today.Check from time to time to make sure Melissa hasn't hidden anything in them.
Yup!This has been one hell of a winter for so many. I'm hoping this the end of it but being as March can throw a wrench in our Spring plans, I'm not holding my breath.
So I did this today while I couldn't work outside. The galvanized nest boxes are from my farm junk pile, I fixed the magneto, crank and ringer on the phone and hung it up. Too bad I don't have a land line anymore. The table I made thirty years ago from scrap railroad heavy crating wood. Call it recycling, upcycling or shabby chic, I call it farm junk. I don't know which way the table is better or more functional. I only ever have a couple people for nonprofit meetings.

I wish he would share photos of that room, I bet it is beautiful. Talented man for sure. Everything he has is right up my alley. I love things like that. My Dad was an upholsterer and very talented with restoring things, mostly antiques, miss that.Barb, you should see the room with the string instruments. The man has talent with just about anything.
Oh gosh, antique farm equipment too!!!!! Egads, now I do need pictures.I won't mention some of his antique farm equipment and what it's taken to keep it running.![]()
It made it to 54 degrees this afternoon before it started raining. This is what I'm working on right now. It's a 1925 McCormick Deering 10-20 tractor. It's a distillate tractor, so will run on kerosene etcetera.Who knows where he is right now he gets into so much on his farm.
