Thats funny you said that because that's exactly what I did. I bought her a dozen roses and arranged them in a vase for her. She was tickled to death.

Ah yes, the ol' flower trick does it every time. Want to have some fun? Have a dozen roses in a nice vase waitin' for her some time when it's no special occasion. She'll look funny at you out of the corners of her eyes for days wonderin' what you've done!!!

Makes me laugh every time.

Handy tip I made a flat 1/2 inch plate of aluminium and fitted in the same horizontal line two variable speed routers,they come cheap these days separated by6 to 8 inches apart,in the middle a tee piece of 1inch plastic pipe fed to a wet and dry domestic vaccuum cleaner.This way you can bring the jig at right angles left or right and set one router with the straight bit,one for the other side of the joint.To me it is frustrating to remove the bit,reposition the next bit etc.If you use one thickness of timber it becomes easy to make the dovetails in a few minutes.Food for thought.Works for me.

Yesterday was my last day at work till next Wednesday Dec 27. That gives me 5 days off. Last night after a wonderful meal she told me that if I wanted to go ahead and open the jig up so that I would have the entire week to play with it then it was ok with her.

So I'm planning on getting all of my 'honey do's' done today and then opening my present and having a really great time in the shop for the next week. YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I'll post pictures at a later date unless I totally destroy my jig.

Ican't belive this !!!!!!!!!! You get to open yours and mine is still stuck in the crate.......:mad:

ICN,

Bill

Do as I did, send her off to her mothers place for a week, that way you can spend the morning, afternoon and evening in the shed and put your feet up with a few coldies on boxing day watching the cricket.
