Compact Workbench

I hate using and carrying around saw horses.  I am always looking for a good compact work bench for the jobsite and the workshop.  I saw this through the DYI section on reddit.com. (reddit.com/r/diy).  It is portable, compact and versatile.  Check out the video on the website of the bench in action.

Free Outdoor Shed Plans

Although I am not keen on about.com.   I was pointed to this page http://freebies.about.com/od/homegardenfreebies/tp/free-shed-plans.htm which discusses basic shed plans.   I always like looking at different plans and getting new ideas.    Also these plans are good for beginners to learn about construction.   Happy Building.

Raspbmc v1.0 has arrived

As I write, Raspbmc is installing on my Raspberry Pi. (Read more about it here).  I installed the alpha version of Raspbmc about 9 months ago and it ran rather well.  So I can't wait to see how this new version will work. I will give updates as the process continues.

I decided to cancel Satellite service this month and watch shows through the internet and netflix.   I hope this new Raspbmc works because it will save $92 per month.
