heppnerguy Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 I know that I have not been on very often in the past month or so but with the move , buying all new furniture and setting up my shop, I have been pretty busy. However I did manage to get a few requests and decided it was about time to show you all that I am not permanently asleep here in the land of the sun. So here are some of the things that I remembered to take photos of before I shipped them. The light was poor in the room I took them in so they are a little fuzzy as a result. The remembrance plaque i make and give to anyone that has lost a loved one that I know. I have made a countless number of these, The second one is a Steve Good pattern that I had orders for three of these. the Arizona State plaque (designed by Sam Custodio) I have made three of these, the potters plaque is another of Sam's patterns I made this for a potter friend of mine as a surprise gift, and the wedding cross I mailed to an exchange student that lived with us 5 years ago and it getting married in three weeks. She lives in Slovakia. So you see, though I have not been real busy, I have not been out of the shop completely Dick heppnerguy JOE_M, Lucky2, Phantom Scroller and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roly Roly, I have a double garage in our new home that is air conditioned and was perfect for me to put my shop in. It is very warm here in Southern Arizona and to have a built in A/C was a blessing. There are a lot of built in storage in it also. The lighting is quite well too. So what I did was, I separated my 4 piece work bench that I had in my second shop in Oregon and put it together to form an 8 foot X 10 foot table. it has two areas where there is a three foot wide open space in the middle and center on both sides where I can sit and do my work at the table. I also have another work bench against the wall with seating area. There are drawers and area under each where I have covered storage for whatever I decide to place there. Against both main walls of the garage has enclosed shelving from one end to the other. I have to admit that I still have not gotten everything in the places where I wish them to be, yet. We also have another one car garage that is totally separate from my shop where we park our car. Later on, I will take photos of it so you can see what I have. I have a lot of room to work in and I could still park a vehicle in the open part of my shop when someone comes to visit us if I wish.

Glad to hear you are settled. Thank you, Dave. There is a lot of work involved with a long move like this one. We sold almost all of our furniture and had to purchase all new items here. That takes some time but we have things in good order here now. Our house is very nice and we have a lake that is only 4 feet off our back patio and has a lot of large fish and turtles in it. My wife and I sit on the patio and feed the fish and turtles every morning as we drink our coffee. I hope to find a lot more time in The Village pretty soon. We are leaving on Thursday for most of the month to go back for a three week visit with family in Heppner and to watch the eclipse. Then we will be heading back home to Arizona. That will put some down time for me and my computer time too. Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted July 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Roly, I have to admit that I am one pretty lucky guy. More than I ever imagined I would have. Love it here but I am waiting for the temperatures to be in the 80's instead of 100's. Only a couple of months away now..
