[TheForge] jobs OT

[Jim Beard]

More half finished projects then I know what to do with...  I've found
I get more time to forge if I work on stuff for the house or for my
wife.  Go figure!  So I've been working on a fence to contain our
raspberry bed, and thinking about how best to lay out some tomato
plant cages.  More yard / garden stakes are on the list, and I have a
half finished, decorative, bird cage holder to finish up some time...

It's nice though to start moving onto projects that involve joinery
and jigs.  I feel like it is a step in the right direction..
