Something I been working on

Thanks Fellas it has been along time getting to this point,to long really.It really amazed me though in just getting the doors on how it made the room bigger(boxes not jumping out at you) and such a finished look.

I just showed my pre-wife that pic - with a big, drool-laden smile.

She smiled.

Then said; "Never."

ooohhhhhhhhh...................................

But I started last night on the work station and the the Skil jig saw I bought yesterday is a POS and is going back in about an hour once have woken up good.I am figuring maybe 40-60hours on this station much faster than the cabinets.

Well I found a PDF of my next project for the shop and kinda the last for awhile "read it and weep" Now if I can get just 90% as good as that pic I will be one happy little puppy.I am going to finish up all the 1/4 circles today with assembly.I figure I should have the the major portions hanging by next week.Once I finish this does that mean I get to paint and work on my old Pooprolet?

I feel sick. I want one. It's one hell of a build. Can we all hang out with a crate of beers?

That day should br coming soon most of the the guys on block claim dibs if the wife kicks them out of the house with a freezer,a/c and heat one is set




Well I got 3 out 6 of the bench supports assembled with the hardboard up front glued and tacked in place.My shop was totally clean last night and is a wreck ATTM dust everywhere and the wife could not believe it .Hey it's just like building a model clean off the desk to start the new one only to mess that up also.This kind of stuff is fun kinda like dropping a cam in an engine or a better set of heads,repairs let somebody else handle that.

It's been great watching the progress over the years, well done!

(and yes, I want one...seriously!)

You could really help some of these guys out Kevin....if you did mail order cabinet kits....

On a side note I am 51 now and hope to be doing something along those lines in small furniture later on seeing that my wife teaches in a Catholic school and all and most of the clients are dotors/lawyers.I just have to get good enough to get into a couple of homes and maybe some talk for they are the ones who can truly afford that kind of efforts.Atleast that is the plan have to see what life deals me.

 

[Wayne Little]

Well, best of luck to you then!

 

[javlin]

Work Continues......and yes I have my Persian rug flaw

 

[Wayne Little]

Sweet!

 

[T Bolt]

Wow! Real nice!

 

[javlin]

Thanks Wayne and Glenn still working it out should have it finished this week.I spent another $360 today and it should just about cover it all bringing the project in somewhere 550-600 not to bad.I am just about done with the light fixture just got to mount the lights inside,wire them parallel and mount her to the wall.Then the dust collect system and the power outlets.It was nice to have a nice long counter to build the light section on a dream coming true for me and I think I am going to hit the 90% mark on looks

 

[evangilder]
