Packing Snow!

February 15th, 2010 No comments

It warmed up quite a bit today, leaving the fresh snow from the past couple days perfect for packing!

What better way to make use of the conditions than making a cat igloo?

Sketchup + Woodworking

February 9th, 2010 No comments

The urge to start woodworking has been creeping back into my mind. The last serious piece I made was my Dad’s kitchen table, which was a great success. I am hoping to start work on a large wine rack for Mai. I have been drawing it in Sketchup, which has been invaluable for getting ideas down on paper so-to-speak.

I managed to find a free rendering engine which so far has been pretty easy to use with very little knowledge. It’s called Kerkythea, there is a plugin for Sketchup that makes like easy! The hard part is going to be getting started! Also, thewoodwhisperer.com has been a great source of inspiration and knowledge!

Here is the design for the wine rack and a couple pics of the kitchen table:

I am in Toronto for work this week and my hotel room looks over the city hall courtyard. It has a cool ice rink and a flaming horn sculpture!

Omar seems to have a great love for the Monarc butterfly, or maybe zoologists?

Spying on the Cats

December 14th, 2009 No comments

We put a couple of webcams up in the living room as a source of entertainment during the day. We figured we would catch the cats doing all sorts of hilarious things while we are away at work. It turns out the furry little buggers miss us so much that they sleep all day to pass the time.
