 We have an epidemic of cabin fever here. If things are a little slow on your end as well, you may wish to entertain yourself by counting the number of species of abrasives (aka 'sand papers') which are photographed. The answer is 23.

Most of my sand, for challenges, etc., is covered by several feet of snow, but there is REAL sand in the miniature, copper coal bucket, along with the required shovel for effective fire suppression!

You've warmed the heart of an old wood worker. Nice display of tools.

Too many details distract me from the main subject.

Sandpaper was one thing that didn't even cross my mind, so points for fresh idea!
