A: Right.
|
A: Huh.

A: That's interesting.

B: Doesn't mean they have to be, uh,
|
B: how shall I say it,
|
B: they don't have to be the, the most, uh, the absolute best
|
A: Uh-huh.
|
B: but, uh, a little dressing a little bit above the standard, I think, would, uh, pay off
|
B: so I'm in the process of telling my wife we got to go shopping for clothes again.
|
A: <Laughter> That's neat,
|
A: that's neat
|
B: And, uh, I, I don't know,

B: now I, I know eastern,
|
B: now the other thing we do here, of course, is a single, not quite a single climate.
|
B: We have, uh, we do have some snow in the wintertime
|
B: and it can be quite warm in the summertime.

A: Uh-huh.

B: Not hot like, uh,
|
B: I lived in the midwest for a while.

|
A: Uh-huh.
|
B: We don't have that much.

A: the winter hasn't been bad this winter.

What kind of
|
B: It's, uh, It's, uh, it's, uh, plywood, uh, face, I guess.
|
A: pine?
|
B: But I cut it out in the shape of a crayon box
|
B: and then I painted, uh, about eight different, uh, colors, uh, you know,
|
B: the crayons that are sticking up, it will be the headboard
|
A: Uh-huh.
|
A: I guess he's young.
|
B: and then,

|
A: Oh, he'll be delighted.
|
B: Oh, yeah.
|
B: Uh-huh.

B: Now I just have to finish it though.
|
B: I got, uh, it got delayed for a little bit and, uh, because of work
|
B: and now, uh, I've got to jump back in and finish the,
|
B: because I've got it all cut out,
|
B: it's all, uh,
|
B: I've done most of the coloring
|
B: but I've got to go a second layer with the yellow.
|
A: Did you do it with a jigsaw
|
A: or do you have powered, you know, a,
|
B: Uh, yeah.
|
B: Uh, I did, uh, jigsaw, uh, and the, uh, regular straight saw for some of it.
|
A: Um.
|
B: So yeah.

B: to do the, uh, the turn cut.
|
B: Uh, how about yourself?

A: Well I'm, I am interested in woodworking.
|
A: I don't have lots of tools.

|
A: uh, and I use their tools and, some of their guidance.
|
A: I'm an artist.
|
B: Oh, okay.

A: And I'm very handy

A: and, you know, if I touch it, it turns into something <laughter> us-, usually.

A: I have a Master's degree

|
A: and I kind of,
|
A: once I get you know, really pretty good at something, I want to try something else
|
B: Yeah.
|
B: Kind of jack of all trades, master of none.
|
A: Yeah,
|
A: well no,
|
A: actually, I get good enough to sell it or have people say oh wow,
|
A: you didn't buy it,
|
A: you made it.
