What are you doing right now?

I just measured, marked, and cut some scrap wood to size. I'm going to build a small wooden cabinet with one shelf in the middle and two glass doors. 26" wide, 14" high, and 14" deep. I got the hinged glass doors from IKEA. I have glue and wood putty, belt sander, construction screws, primer and paint. Once it's finished I'll post a picture, probably tomorrow.
 
I just finished scratch-building a small wooden storage cabinet with glass doors for my garage. The wood is just scrap plywood. I measured, marked, and cut the wood two days ago. Yesterday I didn't have time, but this morning I screwed the pieces together with construction screws, used also glue and wood putty. I sanded, primed and painted with a No VOV acylic paint. I bought the glass doors at IKEA a few weeks ago. They are an accessory for a crappy storage cubicle and available individually and I designed the cabinet to fit these doors. Long live modular construction! I just finished putting the doors in. I added two felt bumpers so the doors won't slam into the wood. I'm happy with the result. No wood working involved, just pure simplexity. 26"wide, 14.5" high, 14" deep.

Eating lunch at work just some pepperoni and combos and a bag of chips. And water to drink. Was waiting on the Snap-on guy but doesn’t look like he is going to show up today oh well.
 
I plan on moving within 2 months, hopefully by Thanksgiving. I'm making a list of furniture that I need to move and another list of furniture I need to buy.
 
Updating a bunch of Apple iDevices. Still like to do it the old way via Finder (used to be through itunes) and USB cable.

Fast tip: if you manage different idevice models, download the ipsw's beforehand so you are not stuck downloading the update for each device. After downloading from the website, go to Finder, , hold Option key > click on Check for Update and it will bring up another window to direct you to the ipsw file you downloaded.

ipsw.me has a huge repository of Apple IPSW's from current to unsigned versions.

Finished up some bracing on our last fencing project this year. Still lots to paint, string bayco and hang gates.

The kids went on a trail ride while I got to work.
 
Watching this Pakistani Youtube channel where they are doing an in-frame rebuild of a Hino diesel straight six truck engine. These guys crack me up. They obviously have lots of experience doing what they do, but the way they torqued the main, rod, and head bolts by hand with what looked like a hand make tire iron type wrench made me cringe. OSHA would have a cow over the flip flops and the kid under the truck passing the tools, too.

The most surprising thing was to see them with a jug of Delo 400.
 
The kids went on another trail ride and I hit the garden. Two minutes of digging got me 30 minutes work to wash some carrots. Since we have been getting frost for a couple weeks now I ripped put the remaining tomato plants. I neglected them and they still were producing. I probably tossed 30 pounds worth.
