LOL PF! Nope.....no deposits back....I get to keep all the "deposits" they gave me, as you can see by the roof of that house!

Yeah! Prolly coulda done some new pics, huh? Awwwww! TY for the compliment though!

Now shhhhhhhhhhhhh with the jointer thing! I was gonna get him one but I opted for the band saw instead...(it was a might less expensive and closer to my budget at the time)! And....he has the radial arm saw and table saw.....so shhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! Yes, he did the edge of the shelf with a router! I got him some really good bits for X-mas last year......and he's been a routing fool ever since! That's also how he did the edges of the wood on the wind chimes, the bird house roof.......and how he did my living room base boards! BTW....he made that router table himself...and made the base table for the radial arm saw as well as for some of the other tools.

Did you notice the chisels hanging above the work bench? Some are new (3 years old) and some were his great-grandfather's, passed down to him from his dad who got them from Pop (his grandfather).

There's another wall (which I didn't have a pic of) to the right when you walk into the barn, that has all sorts of antique tools on it. I gotta get a pic of it because there is one thing up there that we still don't know what it is or how one would use it!

As to the can crusher.....yep, that's what it is! When the beer runs out in the meister....and if his back is out and we can't get another keg....we get cans.....so sue me! LOL! Also....we do drink soda (pop) from cans sometimes.......and we do recycle....so the crusher makes for more room! No shame in that, huh?

*hugs*
