Any body home?

Just wondering if the site is still up and running. There haven't been any posts for 2 days now. Makes for easy reading but I do read every post that hits here even if it don't pertain to my field of expertise.
Well if nothing else the weather here has been rainy for the last 2 days. How's yours??

Rained for a couple days. Sunny and 60 tomorrow. 75 Sunday. I have been busy with school work. No carpet work, so none to write about.

Yeah, I took a shower. Y'all can come back now.

Did you feel the earthquake? My cousin said they just had a 5.3 in Southern Calif.

Cats and dogs here........ wind/gusts/rain. Same forecast for 2 weeks ........that's bout it.

Made me an inset on my saw table to hold my old Craftsman router. I need to rig up a decent adjustable fence, but a temporary fence made slick work of a small molding project. I made it fit snug and it stays in place without screws. When done, the plate and router lifts out of the table so can insert my Makita table saw or just use it as a cutting table.
Well, that's my show and tell for the week.

I talked to him elsewhere and he did.

Why not rig it so you can use the fence from your table saw?

Yeah, boy did I feel the earthquake. It lasted nearly a minute and almost took out my grandfather clock. It taught me that it is time to secure the clock to the wall.

That might work, but I inset the router base with the intention of running material from right to left along the length of the table to better support longer materials.
All I'd need to do is make a straight arm and screw the left side to the table top. Adjustment would be on the right side and held down with a C clamp.
The left side of the fence should really be made so it is adjustable.............. I'm still working on designing that part.
I want it simple since I rarely need router. Maybe I will use it more often if this new creation functions easy.

My cousin said it took out her kitchen lights.

I am happy to report that I have no cracks in my wood plank tile. This was my biggest fear with the dumb earthquake.
