Lin helps in the basement

Long weekend, and Lin came down to help me dig out. The basement holds about forty degrees in November (hence the puffer), and the shop hadn't been swept since September. The planer was buried under a stack of rough cherry waiting on me. Lin ran the miter saw on a list of crosscuts I'd been putting off while I cleared the planer table and re-fed the cherry one more time. The table saw is still my main bottleneck: not enough infeed, not enough outfeed, no proper crosscut sled. But by the end we could find what we needed.
