Title: Beer and a mailbox post…
Post by: Brian_Weekley on August 25, 2014, 12:44:24 PM
I was over at friend's house last weekend to brew some beer, drink some beer, and help him make a timber frame mailbox post.  What better way to spend a day?

(he must have had a few already--he looks too happy working the boring machine...)

Unfortunately, "pressure treated" isn't the flavor we were going for!   :D
