I recently replaced the 4' florescent light in the kitchen with a 4' led light. I didn't want one too dim so I bought a 6,500 lumen light. Turns out it really was too bright. That was the first thing out of mine and my wife's mouth when we turned it on for the first time.
It has dimable led's so I just replaced the switch with a dimmer. Now we can set it for daily use and have the extra brightness when needed.

Looks like decent progress Dusty. Don't worry, it will come together. Maybe if you are careful you can stash some of your extra stuff under the couch and under the bed.
If I lived in Tuscon I could stop by and offer a lot of useless advice...

It probably does not appear to be improving but believe me - it has. The remains of twelve u-haul boxes went to recycle yesterday. There is still a lot to do to make this a work shop again but - it will happen soon.

One more than the number of different blades one has.

The "shop" is not yet ready for saw dust BUT there are NO MORE cardboard boxes except for those that have been collapsed and are waiting to be hauled off by either recycle trash or someone in the neighborhood who needs boxes.
The development where I now reside is occupied by a very significant number of military members thus a regular cycle of relocations. I live within a few miles (as the eagle flies) from the back gate to Davis Monthan AFB (part of the reason we bought here). Thus the demand for u-haul boxes of which I had many.

Hey Dusty,
It is starting to take shape. I like your color scheme. Take your time to get it right so once you start your first project you have a good flow. I can't wait to see it completed. Thanks for the updates.
