Shop pics

Post by eldyfig »

Finally got around to doing a whole shop clean up this past weekend. Here are the pics of the inside. Still have work to do getting the equipment tuned and ready.

Little history...shop is 20x20 detached from house. Been a slow roll. Started construction of shop in May 2006 while builder was doing house. Finally ran electric this pass October. As far as the building itself goes, all I have left is to do a final coat of paint on the wood siding outside, and another coat of trim paint.

The SS itself has been cleaned and aligned. It just needs to be waxed and buffed. The DC has new seals and a new bag ready to be filled.

Notice the SS accessory shelf above my Delta sander:

Notice the new orange tires laying on the bench for the Bandsaw. That's next after I get the sander aligned.

Just built this workbench and attached shelf last month. Still need to install my record vise. Whole unit is mounted to the studs. It does not move a bit...solid.

Looks like a nice sized shop, clean and well orgainzed too. I'm envious. I can hardly wait for the snow to melt in the U.P. so I can get to work setting up my new shop.

I see a few of my books on the shelf. That's usually an indication that a skilled and intelligent craftsman with impeccable taste dwells there.

With all good wishes,

I send my request for a "volume set" of said literature so us newbies can quickly join this esteemed group. :)

I will plead the fifth on that one, but thanks for the compliment. Yes, those books have your name on them.

Okay I'll bite how do you keep dust off everything that is sitting out? I like your bottle collection but one project using MDF and I would have to clean for a week. What is the secret?

Don't build with MDF! When I do build with MDF, I do most of my cutting out-of-doors - hopefully on a breezy day..
