Step 5: The Water Works!

Here is a shot of the cuts in progress.  Notice the lousy cut on the left - real wavy and jagged.  We had to stop and secure the rim because it moved all over on the bed.  We blocked and weighted it, but not enough.  Lesson learned - make it seriously secure.  After the improved work holding, all was well.

I had to pull out my old school hand tools and file away the mistakes in that one slot - no matter how far we progress with technology, a file still comes in handy.

Other old school tools to keep around - a phone that makes phone calls on a thing called a phone line, big hammers, a toaster, and a pocket knife.  these will be crucial following the Apocalypse.
