shivering timbers

Arr, ye landlubbers, today I broke out the table saw again and went to work on the ol' planks I've been hoarding in my garage. The plan is to make enough shelving to hold all of my CDs (all bought with booty, not pirated, har har) and to span the starboard side of our couch.

Well, methinks it's the starboard side. I don't know for sure and the last bilge rat who told me which was which ended up looking for the aft end of Davy Jones's locker, if ye know what I mean.

So what I've got to do now is cut sixteen shelves all the same, and then fit everything together. First, though, I needed to build onto my table saw since it's not big enough. Arr.

I'll probably be making a router table too, on my sawhorses, but not for a while. Arr. This was supposed to be talk like a pirate day, not talk like a cabinetmaker.

    Starboard is right. Port is left. You clearly were never subjected to little Ben Affleck playing with whales in 5th grade science class.
