Amazing Kevin's request

A.K. wanted shop pictures; so here are some!

 

Yes, It is a disorganized mess. I can still find/work etc.

 

I have NEVER seen a SUPER-Neat shop that actually accomplished ANYTHING!

 

I have worked a few metal fab shops and even plastic manufacturing; reasonably clear usually made production easier than always everything AWAY!

Well IT must look a lot bigger than it is!

 

I do love the shop sink though!

 

It is not tiny; but really not big either. Trying to handle a full sheet of plywood gets interesting.

 

I also really like my lights that I can move around easily for more light on saw or drillpress when needed.

 

I have a vise on the same table as the drillpress and sometimes aim both lights there when doing some fitting with a file.

I love it, You have all the toys I'd like to play with. Ah the joys of having a shop! Shut the phone ringer off, Hang a gone fishing sign on the front door and zone out with some quality shop time. Nothing better than self gratification, creating something from nothing! Thanks for accommodating my request so quickly :) :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs: !

I don't think I should reply on my own post again; but, I HAVE TOO!

 

Some of these people should zoom their computer screens some more. LOL or get checked on something! The clock is MINNIE Mouse! NOT Mickey; has not worked for years, but, I will not throw it away! How many Minnie Mouse clocks are around?

 

The wood shop is a loft in son's RV garage.

 

The floor is a pergo type stuff that we inherited. the ceiling lighting is the " take a week to come on FL type bulbs-- but eventually usually about 10 minutes -- they give nice light.

 

The scrollsaw light and drill press light are on holed platforms and have stems so they move around to give a lot of light when really needed.

 

Santa Clause (I should take better care of. He is cloth, cotton , leather, felt and some ribbon --- pasted onto a paper cutout in 1966. I should take him down again and preserve him. I had him out to help me design a template to make some wooden ones.

 

 

The cabinet door handles are real wrenches. I welded them up and then used the same jig to mount them I used to make them. It was mdf board scrap. I had used a gluing clamp to hold the bolts in place on the jig. Tack welded - removed and then finished the welding. They were my son's idea(HIS HOUSE-SHOP- some of his tools some of mine) --but they were my wrenches. Used 1/4inch bolts about 2-2-1/2 in long and 2 nuts. One ran down to the shoulder then the one on the inside of the doors.

I think I answered every question. Oh. forgot to mention this is a second level shop; has a boat underneath it!

 

I think I covered all questions; but, if not just ASK!
