It makes the rest of us retirees look like we don't do anything BTW, great start on the shop. Good planning by mixing some 220v outlets in the runs with 110v. Nice job on the WW'ing bench top, well actually on both. Looking forward to seeing the bench tops getting cluttered with projects. Leave pictures of the cribbage boards out unless you can stage you're making them. Otherwise physical evidence to be used against us. The two butcher block table tops were my first examples of thinking like a woodworker. They were in the kitchen of the high school , of the town I work for. New Mass regulations had banned wooden table tops for food preparation due to them now being considered porous, bacteria could leech into them. I overheard the kitchen manager talking about having to get rid of them, and quickly volunteered to get rid of them for him. They sat on the floor of my basement, for almost two years before I was able to install them. The Shopsmith can be used on 220 volts, maximizes it’s horsepower. I also ran out everything in 3/4 emt so I can add/change in the future. The past historic cold spell we had has made me think about heating the basement. Easiest way is electric heat. I gotta work my way through my current list of sidework, and learn to say no to any more. Then messes I will make.

February 15, 20188 yr Popular Post See the PIP river table pic for Cal. Nothing has moved. Did add a tape and plane to the mess.
February 23, 20188 yr Looked like this more or less since late November...took this about a week ago...picked up the drill, miter gauge and did some refurbing to the combo square with the red tie wrap. Assume it still looks the same...haven't been out there since.

March 4, 20188 yr That looks so nice Gene, cannot wait to see the final pics. What will it be used for? I wouldn't think that you would lay out a spread of groceries on something this nice... a museum piece, perhaps?
March 4, 20188 yr Thanks, Coasty and Cal. It's a coffee table for my son and his wife. It will reside in their living room. Well away from the grocery un loading area.
