Thread: My Workshop and DC unit

Jill, that's the most outstanding workshop I've seen in years. And all the raw material you have stored out there!!

Tex

Couldn't complain about the work environment. I'm green Jill.
No not a bloody Greenie, jealous.

Wow - Great Photo Jill!!! Thanks! No wonder you are building your home there. Love the creek in the background.

cheers
Wendy

Thanks Tex & Termite - shame it's all state forest!! Nice place to live, though! We hope to plant some forestry (for fine furniture) on our land this year, though.

Seeing Jow's pics of the English winter, and hearing so many of you saying about the heat in the Eastern States, and Darwin, I am appreciating this 'almost perfect' weather here!! Need a jacket on lots of days (AND a cap, since I don't have much hair to keep me warm!), but great for building all day long.

Cheers,

Jill

Thanks Wendy - we must have been posting at the same time! It's my dream block - over 30 acres (for us to have some farm stock, orchard, big veggie garden, etc.); State forest all around us; and just a few quiet neighbours that are into training trotting horses.


Cheers,

Jill

Only hassle I can see is no walls to hang stuff on?

Would love to have a place like that, I'm on 1/3 acre after having the normal development block or 600 metres. Could never go back.

No hair at all for me so your workshop would need the Akubra and lots of sun creme for me lol.

Jill: you are outstanding in your field

And it's an outstanding field, too. Beautiful outlook.

It is nice to see the face behind the posts (even when covered with safety gear). Thanks for the pic.

Walls on way, Benny! Once we finish the house, we'll have a workshop WITH walls!! Can't wait, though I'll still do things like thicknessing outside - love that fresh air! Lol about the head protection! Maybe you should see Wongo about the offcuts from his daughter's first visit to the hairdresser?!

Thanks Zenwood!...love the view, too - esp. since most of the year here it is lush and green, as you'll see in pics of our house as it nears completion!

And here is an one without the safety gear, etc., with my husband.

Cheers,

Jill

The thicknesser is a must as you will need the shavings for your chook shed. My chooks love it and you don't get Chook poo all over the eggs any more lol.

Here's the amount of hair I have so would need the offcuts and a good glue.

Great Photo Jill! Yep, I think we were posting at the same time. I have to be honest. I'm not game to post a pic of me when working, I scare myself enough let alone anyone else

cheers
Wendy

Wow, nice plane, Benny - and that hair - you have a hairdo like some of my male rellies! My grandpa was shiny on top at 22 y.o.! Our daughters have about 4-6 times as much hair as me, thanks to my husband's genes!

We do use the wood shavings in the chook nests and on the floor = non-smelly chookpen! Nice to see your face, too - you're waayyyy slimmer & sensible-looking than the guy on your avator!

Cheers,

Jill

Wendy - we did it AGAIN! Maybe it's because I take so long to post!! I'd love to see a pic of you - even when working! Take note I didn't post one taken at the end of the day..Jarrah dust gives quite an amazingly major make-over!

Cheers,

Jill

Been standing too close to those props?

Great photo's Jill, thanks for showing. I use a covered deck for most of my work as im still without a proper shed, works well tho. Scrollsaw has its home in the laundry which is a nice sized room.

If I got anywhere near that prop I'd be hopping around playing golf with one arm.

Any old aeromodellers out there will show you there prop scars on the flicking finger.

Jill, how do you go with Roo's from the state forest? Would imagine you would have them at the garden? Just need to keep them out of the vines, surely your going to have a few acres lol. Shiraz perhaps?
