Paul V. is an interesting fellow who makes knives, among many things, in his old shop. Everywhere you looked, there was a story waiting to be told.
If you look in the floorboard of the old truck, you'll see fiddle and banjo cases. The story on those coming soon.
By the way, this is the owner of the 1930 Ford Model A that I posted a photo of yesterday.

Made from scratch with the help of my son & granddaughter, it was delicious !
The top upper right was her choice: tomato sauce and cheese only.
Finally put together a homemade suspension stand out of PVC tubing. It's Schedule 40, which is nice because it fits together tightly enough that it doesn't need glue but still comes apart pretty easily. These half-inch pipes are solid enough to support a figure nicely.
The PVC pipe cutter cost more than everything else I bought put together, and I have enough to probably make a second one (or just shorter support posts). They're 24" high and 18" wide, with 6.5 inch segments for the legs at the bottom.

For the third year in a row, we've made cherry vodka. Compared to making wine, it is easy. It's just cherries, sugar, and vodka.
And you don't have to use cherries. You're really only limited by your imagination. And many major vodka brands make their own flavored vodka, whether apple, mint, coffee, etc.
And to be clear. While we mixed the ingredients together, we did not make the vodka. Making your own vodka is akin to gathering your own mushrooms in a field. You really want to have some idea what you're doing before you do it. Besides, you can get quality vodka cheaply here, so there is no need to do it yourself. A decent quality vodka might cost you $2 - $4 per liter.
CORRECTION: Correct price per liter of vodka starts around $5. I was obviously quoting the 1/2 liter price!
Cheers!

The dough was soft, supple and very easy to work with. Once it rose and I shaped them into balls, I flattened them a little so they would have a head start with a nice round shape for the second rise. Before they went into the hot oven, a quick brushing of an egg wash makes these pale doughballs turn into glistening golden buns as they baked. If you like, before you set them in the oven, a scattering of sesame seeds would be quite acceptable for these. They are light and fluffy on the inside with a decent crust on the outside. Using milk, instead of all water, makes these very tender as well.

I've been making my own toothpaste since May when I learned the recipe from the Compact group. Only hard-to-find ingredient is glycerin. Tim, who buys glycerin to stretch his pricey lube, thinks that it's because glycerin is an ingredient of bombs. Well you can still get it at Whole Foods in the toothpaste section. Here's the recipe:
6 teaspoons baking soda
1/3 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons glycerin
15 drops peppermint or wintergreen extract
UPDATE: I now make 3 x this amount so I don't have to make it as often
6 table spoons baking soda
1 tsp salt
3 table spoons glycerin
1/4 tsp peppermint
Mix together into a paste and store in a container you can get a toothbrush into. It's very fresh tasting, though a little salty. I gave three friends samples and they all complained about the salty taste, but I like it because it makes my teeth feel like they've just been polished. My dental hygienist said she would prefer I use something with flouride in it, but that my teeth were so well cleaned she wouldn't want to change anything.
Here's an article on the benefits of these ingredients as a toothpaste. www.mizar5.com/keyes.html
My first homemade lens.
Two elements from the US precision lens group shown here in another picture, a rubber lens hood and extension tubes.
Fixed focus in the moment but I plan to add some focus mechanism from an old lens.
It results in about 95mm. The effective (what is on the sensor) f-stop is about F/1.4. It's pretty fast, as you can see in the comparison :)
Please find some more info and a sample shot in the comments!

Dough Recipe:
1 package active dry yeast (about 2 tsp)
1 teaspoon sugar
1 cup warm water
1/2 tablespoon salt
Extra-virgin olive oil
3 cups all purpose flour
Pizza Stone
Pizza Paddle
In a bowl, combine sugar, yeast, and warm water, stir until dissolved and let sit for 10 minutes. Add salt and 2 tablespoons olive oil and stir together. Begin adding flour a little at a time until the dough comes together ( you might have about a quarter cup left over, use for dusting board and pizza paddle) Knead dough then form it into a sphere and roll in around in a lightly oiled large bowl, cover bowl and let it rise to double its size for one hour. Preheat oven and pizza stone to 450* F.
Once the dough is domed and spongy, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll and stretch the dough into a cylinder and divide into 2 equal pieces. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes so it will be easier to roll out.
Stretch them out into circles of desired thickness and brush with olive oil and add toppings. Carefully slide pizza onto hot pizza stone and bake for 9-12 minutes.
Delicous Margherita Pizza-- Yellow tomatoes, Roma tomatoes, fresh basil, olive oil, mozzarella and parmesan. It was so good and I will definitely be making pizza with this dough recipe again.
