Twelve years ago...

I joined LJs. This year was a good one for my time on LJs.

I managed to share 8 projects - some (3) from a few years back and some (5) as I made them:

The Meat Shredders project was an older project that I have on my list to share

Next was A Pair of School Buses which I posted once it was done. This project also had a 6 part real time build blog

The Pizza Peel Holder project was another project I did this year. A pretty simple one but a nice addition to our travel trailer.

The Lumber Rack Upgrade was a project that was long overdue and a welcome improvement to the shop

the Tiny Art Deco Cabinet was another build that had a real time build blog with 11 chapters

The Inlaid Cutting Board was a new process for me

The Cedar Lined Chest was another project from a few years ago that I managed to finally share

And finally I managed to post the Set of 3 Frames yesterday. Got that 8th posting in just in time Another project from a few years ago

Even though I set a record for posting projects, my list of projects to post grew from 25 to 32! At least I won't run out of things to share

I also got a bit more involved in the "social" side of LJs by spending some time with the gang at Gunny's Garage - A nice group. Stop by & say "hi" if you want.

I continue to enjoy the time I spend here and look forward to another great year. Keep on building!

congrats steve ive enjoyed all your contributions and look forward to many more my friend.

Congratulations on your anniversary.

I really enjoy the diversity of your projects - and the well thought out and methodical approach you have in completing them. Your descriptions are very helpful in understanding your approach and useful for other LJ'ers to use on their projects

Can't wait to see your future projects.

Steve, this is a great idea. I might just have to borrow it and start one for myself. But it will have to start out at four years.

Now at year 13

I had no idea that the end of my 13th year would look like this.

First of all I posted ZERO projects in the last 12 months. I have plenty to post but just didn't get them done. There were a few things that got in the way.

We did a good bit of travel this year.

I was involved in a rebuild of our patio. We had contractors do the heavy work, but I did a lot of the electrical rough in, detail framing, stain & paint work, cabinet install, and finish carpentry. That project took nearly an entire year.

Finally, I typically wait until September to catch up on project posts. The changes here at LJ have caused me to pause while the team works to clean up the transition. I am hopeful that the site will become a place where I can have my projects on display for many to see. I realize that this can take time but it is hard to know what the final version of LJ's will be.

Well Done Steve, I see you are finding your way around here. As I mentioned before I need to borrow this idea.

Thanks Eric

I do enjoy looking back on the year and past years.

It's interesting. Usually by now I have 3 or 4 comments on a new yearbook post. I checked up on those who have commented in the past. Only 3 are currently active (meaning they post at least daily). Several show up but are not active like they used to be. A few have not been back since the new format showed up.

Yeah, we have had quite a bit of attrition.
