Tallbald Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 More time in the shop with my Shop Partner and wife, Penny. A few rabbit and egg decoration blanks for the Easter holiday completed. We are both learning as we travel this scrolling journey together. Warm weather this week and three evenings in our shop side by side. Love this lady and our lives together. 17 years so far strong.

flarud Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Sounds good! You can use that Echo leave blower sitting on the floor to improve on the saw's dust blower. scrollingforsanity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dak0ta52 Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 I can see she sure likes that new Jet saw. Glad it's working for the two of you and you're able to do it together. scrollingforsanity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tallbald Posted March 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 (edited) Gosh yes it's wonderful. First spouse of 22 years just wanted me to "get it done", whether it was building antique repro furniture, custom molding for our home, mantel surround for our new home fireplace or an entertainment center etc etc. Penny, whom I met a year into bachelorhood 17 years ago has always been a crafter. To this day she quilts, Cricut creates (the vinyl version of laser cut crafting I guess), makes custom costume jeewlry, works in wood and anything else that strikes her interest. Today she's to be in our shop again making some decorations for Easter again. What a wonderful life partner I have been blessed meeting...

wombatie Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Terry (my hubby) and I share our garage. He's at the front making classic cars and construction vehicles (plus he's a carpenter, retired) and I'm at the back scrolling away and singing to the radio. 51 years together.

Bill WIlson Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 My wife & I will celebrate our 45th anniversary this June. She rarely sets foot in my basement shop. I'd be afraid that if she hung out with me, she would start putting stuff away and cleaning up. Gene Howe and meflick 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallbald Posted March 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Hahaha that makes me grin. Penny respects that I need and want the shop cleaned, blown out and organized back to "ready to roll" before closing the door for the night. As I commented before, Penny's much more uhhhhh... "casual" about her sewing room. I was a Tool and Die Maker part of my career and organization was my modis operandi. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
