<I read in one of his notes that he does NO work in the evenings or
during the week. Are you kidding me??

Hi Ron

I'm afraid that's true. I'm just a Weekend Warrior (and weekends are
free only assuming that family plans have not been made). It'd be
divorce otherwise! I do often get a few hours on Monday afternoon as
that is a half day for me.

Of course that does not stop me obsessing during the week - my patients
imagine that my appearance of concentration is that I am deep in thought
about their situation : ) By the time I get into the shop I pretty much
know what needs to be done.

Now doubt this is the situation for many here - hence the attraction for
smaller projects, such as toolmaking, which are a quick fix between the
longer, furniture-building months (although I cannot say that about this
plough - definitely not a quick fix). Do others experience this?

Regards from Perth

Derek
