I agree. Celebrate the thing being done right now.

Progress in the yard. This is the cast iron form I plan to turn into a primitive outdoor table. I don't like to use chemically imbedded pressure treated wood so I picked up cedar planks. A few cuts puts me to this point in the job. It is roughed in, enough for today. My next step is to get out the sander and smooth the ends and round the edges for drainage. After that I'll put a board underneath each side and use carriage bolts to fasten them in place. These board surfaces will be removable. I'll consider if there is any modification that can be done with the upstanding former feet. Maybe a low wind screen or tool or implement rack?

I was able to do this little job very quickly (four cuts in four boards) because I've cleared out the garage junk that was an impediment to reaching the workbench and the tools. Success breeds success.
