MIMF

Hey MIMF, I haven't built an instrument for about 8-9 years, despite being nuts about it during dental school. I'll be building a trio of tenor ukuleles with koa (I've dimensioned, joined, and thicknessed them). Are there any special things I should consider? Any tips on jigs? FWIW, I'll be using th...

That's gorgeous. Like your tool wall.

With this COVID thing going on, it's sorta hard to have dates...or friends over normally. To solve that problem, I've been making the outdoor patio area a "socially distanced dining area." How about you'all? Any fun projects/ideas? MVIMG_20200723_210349.jpg IMG_20200723_172620.jpg I'm not sure if I ...

Hey Patrick,

I know this is a super late reply, but you're a good man.
Also, nice work.

Hope you're staying healthy during this COVID time

Just add wings

Great photo! What's your setup?

Hey everyone, I ended up getting tied up with COVID protocols for reopening. It's been really hard to get PPE (gloves, masks, gowns) in addition to dealing with the SBA (EIDL, PPP, CARES, as things were first come first served). After staring at the Osage Orange for weeks, I just bought some cherry ...

Hey Chuck,

You're a winner. Nice work.

Also, bear in mind that there's no 100% standardized protocol set for us.
CDC/ADA/OSHA has just copied and pasted from the OR protocols (negative pressure rooms).
AGD/WISHA has a modified protocol that makes more sense.

It's been extremely frustrating on our end.

I've been trying to help out my fellow dentists with setting up safety protocols. Here's mine: 1. All staff are temperature checked first thing in the morning. Staff with symptoms are sent home to self-quarentine. 2. Prescreen patients before they get in the office 3. Disinfect hands.  Temperature s...

Dang. I haven't been on much in many years, but glad MIMF is still alive.

Just bumping this thread.

With good American N95's in short supply, I've been resorting to Chinese KN95 from a trusted surgical supplier.
However, the quality isn't the same.

I'd appreciate tips on good respirators.

I think he meant Antonio Torres.


Thanks for sharing this. If there's another shutdown, I might try doing that on a bass.

Dunno. Glad he's in Canada. Should be safer than here in the states.

No kids yet. Need a wifey first.

Heard from a number of patients who've been doing that with varied success.

I really like your joint Peter.

Can I copy/use it on a future build?
I'll be building an acoustic bass guitar with nylon string.

When I did a pizza, I but it on a cedar plank on a charcoal grill, but gas should work fine too. beem making pancake pizzas though. trader joe's pancake mix. flip pancake. Add sauce ( 2 pt spahetti, 2 pt pt tomato paste 1 pt sriracha). Add some slices of cheese. pop in toaster oven for 10 minutes. Y...

Hey Clay,

Try baking a pizza on a BBQ grill sometime.
You might be pleasantly surprised how it turns out.

Hey everybody, It's been a while since I've been on the forum. I just wanted to see how everyone's been doing. Also, I'm curious what people have been up to. I've been growing blueberries, and making Kombucha. Mainly, I've been focussing on reopening my dental office with new safeties in place for C...

nope. got swarmed by work.

now, coronovirus shutdown
