elephant ear 02:54
where or if you find a song don't wait too long to underestimate what may go wrong sudden jump back away from the wheel another narrow escape, that rarely reveal while firmly hanging on, like an elephant ear so whatever ran over me cut the last tie to reality so re-calculate the ways we'll need to go stoop to sneak feign breaking a knee telling it like I see, but barely all I know elephant ear so how to tolerate? is it only time, or is it fate? so hard to deviate is it love, or is this hate? over an elephant ear

So you want to build a dove-tail drawer where you can hide some stuff and then you go buy more but yer having questions and feeling fears you've come to the right guy cuz I been making em for years the dove-tail joint it is an ancient technology that pre-dates the nail, the screw and scientology it holds itself if the fit is true without a fastener and it don't rely on glue it's a mark of quality and shows that time was spent it's detailed considered and maybe heaven sent and you know I could go on but this floor is laid instead I'll tell you how dove-tail drawers are made you start will a slice of a tree as a plank find one at the store and bring some money from the bank is it straight? does it cup? are there knots? is it split? are the things you should consider when yer lookin at it the thickness you want is four quarters or less and it'll save you time if it's already dressed while the width is random the length is set you may need a truck for movin it the fun begins when you get back to the shop and there's no better time so there's no need to stop you cut the rough pieces slightly over length yer gonna use a chop saw and lotsa arm strength cuz the jointer's next it makes one face flat then you run it on edge perpendicular to that the planer thins it down by the sixteenth five eights is finished thick if you know what I mean and now you rip four pieces to the final height one front, one back and two sides is right you sand and trim to the final size minus any allowance based on the type of slides slowly approaching the dove-tail jig if you can figure this out you'll be onto something big but the teeth and math is way over yer head you better sit on down with the manual instead and I'll wait So the sides get tails the front and back get pins and three quarters in is where the router begins you use a test piece first so you get the right fit when yer ready put on yer cans and commit the sides go first and then you flip the teeth make sure the piece stays tight up underneath then its the front and back you re-assess the fit you check the pride or lack and have fun with it contain the dust protect your ears and eyes if needed fine adjust it may take multiple tries keep pieces organized and you won't get confused don't scream and yell stay humbly amused now yer coming up on assembly certain details you ought to consider g yer best to round the sides along the top dado for the bottom and check the ply you got now are there clips and holes? handles knobs and fronts? what is the drawer to hold? what is the height you want? then you bang it together and you sand it down you seal it up so it maintains the brown slide in the bottom staple at the back look it all over and fill any crack you get the drawer in place and you try it out while growing confidence where there was only doubt now you see so clear just what you've begun you head back to the store so you can make another one cuz you got more stuff and nowhere to put it a few more drawers wouldn't hurt now would it? maybe you can sell drawers make some cash maybe you can grow em just like a moustache maybe start a business and get this down maybe hand drawers out all over town now I've gone too far you need to reel me in cuz this is just a song to help you begin these are just rhymes and not much more then instructions on how to build a dove-tail drawer

about

King Dooker Peterborough, Ontario

King Dooker is the ongoing internal soundtrack and reflections on people I know, experiences I've had, and melody lines that bubble up in dreams or become entangled in my subconscious by means of tiny hooks made of sound. Sticky stuff, gathered from the corner. Shouldn't have touched it.
Ate it.
Hear and there.
Dig.
