I have now begun building a traveling commons--an eight-foot round redwood table atop four wheels and a car engine. I, and whoever else ends up joining me, will drive the table around the world. Talking, cooking, writing, sculpting, playing billiards ... the table escapes narrow definition of purpose.It will be a drama in which many people, with all their stories and concerns, thoughts and passions, will be the actors, the landscapes, the backdrops. It will be a community based on what people have to give--and there is everything to give. Some may offer food, wine, and a place to park; others, content and inspiration. The traveling commons is the stone in stone soup, the sand in the oyster. It is a magic carpet that flies--not above people, but through and within them. There will be a library, dictionary, typewriters, cameras, easels, and elegant china stored in compartments below deck. We will stop at vickershydraulicpowerunit universities, parks, capitals, housing developments, and sometimes even red lights--the traveling commons transcends class and country. We might stay in a place for weeks, or just a couple of minutes. As we gain recognition, and take on the momentum (wobble?) of a pottery wheel, we will sometimes write ahead, inviting artists, writers, and thinkers for a meal and a chat. Over the engine, using the heat of combustion, we will bake bread and make coffee. We may also have a zucchini or two growing in a well in the center of the table.

The smallest, brad nailers which shoot brads up to 1-1/4 in. long, often sell for well under $100.

Don''t put asphalt shingles on anything bigger than a doghouse without a roofing nailer. For wood shingles, speed up the job with a roofing stapler.
