Busy busy busy.

Quite pleased with my table-saw. My electric saw fits in the table and turns it into a table-saw. Now to do a bit of jigging to ensure wood is cut straight. All made with off-cuts - even underneath switch, double socket, chain and plug were reused. Chain is to hold a weight.

Then to make something, thinking of making a delux CD cabinet. Unsure though how many more CD's I'll be getting. After all, now it's easy to buy music online and download it to the PC. Here in S.A. prices are R10 for a song or track and R100 for all tracks on the CD. So that saves having to buy the CD for just one or two wanted songs. Sometimes if a CD has long tracks it's cheaper to buy all the tracks seperately rather than the CD-all tracks. I'll be trying that way soon with a couple of rare George Formby tracks I haven't got, but feature on a recently published CD.
