Popular Post Gene Howe Posted August 18, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 Well, today I decided to get sick in the head. It's been too long and the sawdust and clutter finally got to me. Several weeks (months?) ago, I ordered a set of really nice steel center finding rules from Woodsmith. A 12" one and a 6" one. Within a week, the 12" one got lost among the detritus I've allowed to accumulate. Search as I might, it was not to be found. I knew that the surest way to finding it was to order a new one. But, I refrained. Today, I found it! Along with a countersink, and a bunch of pencils. The day's not over. Who knows what forgotten treasures await.

lew Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 Great minds must think alike. I did some cleaning today, also. Need to look in the shop vac to see if any lost items reappeared. FlGatorwood 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Dudelston Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 I was telling John Moody today that I started out Monday thinking about cleaning the shop if the spirit moved me. It is Thursday and the spirit didn't. Oh well. Al B and FlGatorwood 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandyDan Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 I cleaned up a little myself yesterday. Once I found the pin vise I was looking for the shop suddenly looked clean as all get out and it was business as usual again.

Fred Wilson Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 I thought we agreed to "Spring Cleaning" until, after a little cleaning up saw dust over the weekend, I found that dasterly little spring that I lost several months ago ! ! ! ! !
