I took this picture this morning, and it looks like progress to me: almost a place to live aboard! But as usual, unexpected impediments to progress arise. We were planning to put plywood cladding on to-day. Last night John set to work to machine a thread on a piece of pipe for extending the sink drain. Suddenly there was a loud noise: cruncha cruncha!
It could be the end of the lathe he bought second-hand from Otto Bruder's machine shop in Ottawa in 1974. It has lasted almost as long as our family's mythical toaster. Today he is investigating whether or not the cruncha cruncha was terminal: so far he has found a loose gear
