Shop Timelapse

Today, I decided to make a timelapse video of a typical day in the shop. Unfortunately, or fortunately depending on your perspective, my camera ran out of both storage space and battery so only two hours were captured. The video lasts less than 2 minutes and shows the construction of seven Newell posts. Order of operations: Rip boards to 3-inch width, cut to length at the miter saw, move to the router table to create a lock miter joint along all edges (most time-consuming), return to the table saw to make relief cut in half the boards to prevent tearout, empty the dust collector at some point, dry fit the Newell posts and move on to routing and sanding the hand rail I glued up earlier in the day. Not shown, the other 6 hours of work before returning home to snow blow the driveway. Gotta love retirement?
