Shed time

**wheelinround** · 27th June 2010, 01:45 PM

after two days doing some shed time I am annoyed to damn cold for starters, this progresses to muscles that won't or don't warm up and refuse to work. So I try a bit harder only to end up cramped hunched over and freezing. Its a nice sunny day but the wind chill is

.

Pat your shed would warm due to the skylight allowing the sun to heat it the internal walls insulation and floor a big PLUS. By this afternoon I expect at least 3 or 4 BS blades made.

I got inspired today and had a good cleanup in the shed and made some inroads on the lack of storage, but the best bit is I actually finished something on the lathe

. It's only small, but it's finished, a tea candle holder made from some Sourhern Red Oak Steck (Steve) gave me.

I didn't actually do any turning at 's, but yes, seeing everyone getting stuck into it certainly made me pull my finger out.

Well I wandered out to the new shed after work today, I decided it needed a tidy up . . . put away some of the mess then saw the little bowl I had been mucking around with and thought, I'll just turn the spigot off.

Huon Pine 250x68, apologies for the pic quality.

Geez my shed smells good

I was going to say that all shed time is good time - especially compared to office time
My second idea was to do a mass turnup at your shed and badger you into, at least, leaning against the lathe and telling yarns

Good job on the t-lite holder John

The wood looks a lot like our maple here in the states.

Saw a t-shirt at the gym the other day
"a bad day on the golf course is better than a good day at the office"

It made me start thinking of shed slogans

any time in the shed is better than a good day at the office
or
a day at the lathe is more fun then ... did someone say good day at the office

or
time at the lathe is better then sex (not sure I agree with this one)
