I'm an Iowa farm kid with a so-called "white collar" job (PhD-trained prof and administrator), but it's in my DNA to get my hands dirty fixing all sorts of things-mostly to save some cash! So, most of what you will find here are DIY jobs and projects, especially working on my cars. Keep in mind, folks, everything I post here is for entertainment purposes only. If you try doing anything that I do on this channel, it is at your own risk.
Make MS Word work for you (not against you)
I'm an administrator and professor in my day job. I do a lot of research and writing as well as prep documents for my students. Like many others, I use Microsoft Word and I have to make it work for me with macros. #diya

Butcher block oil on my latest charcuterie board #diy
มุมมอง 11428 วันที่ผ่านมา
My workplace is going to have a fundraising auction. I volunteered to make a #charcuterie board to be auctioned off. I made one from some Black Walnut that was harvested from the Dvorak farm in Iowa, where I grew up. In this video I do my favorite part: apply the butcher block oil which makes the dark grains of the wood pop! #diy
Chainsaw time #diy

I'm at the Dvorak Farm in Iowa, visiting my parents-especially my Mom who is in the hospital. Before heading to the hospital, I fired up the chainsaw. No, I am not a professional lumberjack. I am a farm kid who grew up cutting wood for heat in the winter. Always be safe when running a chainsaw.
