The BIG MOVE! Part 2

OK so I started moving stuff out of my shop and cleaning things up a bit. I have to get out so Cheryl can get in. SO....Here are the pics of my dust bomb! Yes the walls are suppose to be kinda off white. Not really the brown that the dust makes them. We had a little challenge moving out my special custom made dust table. It would not fit out the door. SO... Plan B You probably guessed what plan B was. What do you do with the table after Plan B is implemented? That's right! TO THE FIRE! So now Cheryl is in charge of fixing the Swiss cheese walls and touch up painting. It is turning out pretty good at the moment. Cheryl currently is moving small bits of furniture in there so that she can work with the arrangement. Once her stuff is out of the garage, Mine will move into the open space. We'll think of the next step after that. For your Anime pleasure: School Rumble! It is a very funny show! I feel for Harima and think he shodul end up with Eri, the rich girl who hates his guts but is strangly attracted to him. Tenma on the otherhand is just clueless, and unatainable. But that is what he wants. Here's the openning. Enjoy!

Monday Madness!

After taking pretty much the entire weekend to work on my shop furniture, I had to carve up 10 seats tonight. Well, at least 8. Cheryl was stressing because she did not get her delivery confirmation for the boxes yet and she ordered them last Thursday! I have to call the place later in the morning to see where our order is. As is is now, we had to scavenge several boxes from the Meyers so we could ship out the seats we carved tonight. Ah! the fun of owning your own job! Anyway, I got this far on my dust table until I , once again, ran out of wood. I had to stop and assemble things as they were because I knew I had to have it ready so I could carve tonight. I still need enough to make three pull out bins that will tip out. ( Thanks Handi!) I had been toying with the idea because the dust bin is sloped at a strange angle. Handi noticed it as well and made the same suggestion. Nice to have your original plans confirmed. Well, It's late, and I still have several seats to carve up tomorrow!

Putting in Drawers is hard!

Ok, to be fair, I did get a late start on the project tonight. The goal was to spice up the sanding table with a little storage and practical additions while making it look better. Here's a "before" picture. I only got this far before I had to take a break in frustration. First it was really late. Second, I ran out of screws, Third, my lumber supply was getting low and I did not want to make any mistakes. After looking at it now, I guess I did accomplish a little more than I first thought. I will work on the drawers late when the glue dries and the slots are ready for measurements. They are going to be a challenge because as you can see....the dust collector takes up a odd amount of space. I think I have a plan though....

Shop furniture: Sanding Table!

So tonight I worked on my designer sanding table. It's not finished, but I got a sizable chunk of it done. As for now, It's late,my room is a disaster, and I'm all out of patients! I want to eventually add some drawers and extra storage space. The slope of the collection bin is nice and extreme, but it might need a little boose with downward suction. I'll be thinking about that later. Now, I just want to see how it works. Tomorrow is going to be a full carving day again. So I'm just happy I got it functionally put together.
