New Accessories For The Wild Honey
Melody asked me to build a pastry display case for the counter top at the Wild Honey. She wanted it to hold two full baking sheets and have screen on top and back to prevent condensation on the glass and keep bugs out.
After our usual design and finish negotiations, we “settled” on pine with the same finish as the hexes on the front of the counters.
I signed it on one of the tray rails. You know it is authentic because it took eighteen words. 
Liz has really embraced it. It does hold a lot of baked goods.
And no, it is not photo shopped, that is Sid on the left and her sister, Cloe, on the right.
I’ve decided to make wood shelves which will have room for more product and make future designs not have to meet the baking sheet requirement.
Meanwhile, the weather is perfect for a bike ride after breakfast.
Stay safe y’all.
So far I've reached acceptable proficiency at the following, in chronological order: Silversmith, infantryman/door gunner, helicopter pilot, fireman, carpenter, residential contractor, FAA Air Traffic Control Specialist and crotchety old retired guy. Currently, I'm learning to fly again and that is what this is all about. 7/7/2020 edit: As I have had the opportunity to reflect (old people do that a lot) on my actual proficiency level at the above occupations, I feel adjustments are in order. The term "acceptable" depends on the observer, their own proficiency and experience level. Acceptable to me might be woefully deficient to the master. I think it would be more accurate to claim that I have earned a living wage at all of these occupations but never got rich. Actually, I feel that I have gotten rich at the last one. I have what I need and am profoundly grateful for all of it. The future looks bright indeed, as I have learned to fly again. For that I have all of you to thank. Thank You!
Hi Troy, your pastry display case is absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
