Lathe room renovations Part 1

[jefferson]

After the Wagga event, we had some visitors in Jim C, , Ken W and their partners.

With the help of Col (the local Club President) and son Dan, and Ken took charge and transformed the turning end of my shed. Ken and did the reveals for all the windows, Dan (under supervision) lined two sections of the walls.

Thanks guys for all the help. It's coming together, so many thanks. :2tsup::2tsup:

Here's and Col gluing up the new tool rack:

Sorry, no pics of Ken W with his brace off and barely observing his 5kg lifting limit. :rolleyes:

Lots of room now for timber storage (racks arriving soon).

Looking good Jeff :H

Who had the delight of shearing :o

[Groggy]

I like the setup, good work! :2tsup:

[skot]

Ken,

Great Rack.........

[Ed Reiss]

Jeff...now there won't be any excuse for not doing any turning :;:D

Looks as if your "helpers" did a heap of work, your a lucky fella' !!!

[tea lady]

So you can't buy any more chisels? :C Good to have it sorted. I need 'em over at my joint now. :D

[texx]

nice rack and will do the job well , but i am not a fan of storing chisels with the bitey end up like that , can slice a wrist or arm very easy.

[mick61]

G`day I like the chisel rack. Good to see you are keeping Ken busy and away from the lathe.
Mick:p

[Grumpy John]

Hey Jeff, the eighth slot from the left is empty, what's going on :D.

[Tim the Timber Turner]

Hey Jeff.

What are you doing with all them blue toolrests on the bench. The ones that reckons are no good.:?

Please put them into a box and send them all to me.:2tsup:

That should make happy.:D

Cheers

Tim:)

no , but when you reach over the rack to open a window or even stumble and put your hand out , or turn quick with your elbow sticking out , or reach for one chisel and catch the back of your hand on the one next to it ( seen that done ).
just giving an opinion thats all

[Gunado]

Oh to have a shed like that, I am so jealous. It looks great.:2tsup:

[dai sensei]

Great looking shed :2tsup: Wish mine was that big :-

I built a rack like that for my chisels, but soon broke it. I wouldn"t lift the chisel high enough before trying to extract it, so broke the top holder. These days I have a rack that slopes backward, and has a magnetic strip to ensure the chisels stay there.

[Ad de Crom]

Looks very good Jeff, place enough too for a dance floor, bright daylight, the best light you can catch. Now back to work!!

[Sawdust Maker]

Lookin good
I reckon you have too many chisels :o

Tell you what! Just to give you a bit of room send about a 1/3 to me. Promise I'll look after them for you :D

[NeilS]

Geez, Jeff, you're not half rubbing it in...:U

Now for some photos of you in there knee-high in shavings!

[jefferson]

Jeff, looking good. When's the cyclone due to be hooked up?:fisch:

Pat, the cyclone is in place and waiting for some piping and $. Hopefully soon!.

Jim

Jim, the work bench you see in pics 1 & 2 is my little Sawstop. I'll probably use it when I get around to laminates - but not until the chisels behave themselves a little better.

Neil, definitely not trying to rub it in. Yes, I do have a great shed but I've been acquiring woodworking machines and tools for maybe 10 years.

The woodturning bug has got me well and truly though and I confess to going overboard, just a little. Just clearing space for a VL600..... :rolleyes: If she lets me.....
