He needs to start saving up for his next project when the Daughter drives this one off to college.Sounds like Roger should be in great shape to hand down to the kid when the time comes.

Nice work, can’t wait to see the finished project!This afternoon we began building display cases for my Dad's Marine uniforms. I taught my daughter how to use a compound miter saw. She already had some measuring skills, but we made improvement there too. We also had the help of my retired neighbor (Army, Vietnam Veteran, Agent Orange Cancer survivor). He was a great help and yes it was muggy out.
These boxes are only roughed in at this point. They are 24x36 and framed with 1x3 select pine and have real glass. These are stupid expensive pre-assembled and I wanted something more personal for Dad. And I'm a skinflint too. My older sister is going to help with final touches and possibly some custom woodburning on it too.
