September 21, 20187 yr Popular Post This weekend is the beginning of fall and it’s hard to tell here. Yesterday was a record setting day for temperatures, we hit 100. I’m not a fan of real cold weather but I could take a break from these long super hot days. My AC is working overtime. We finished the table with the metal base and expecting it to be picked up today. It has one bench and the will use chairs on the other side. Today we will finish up a Green Egg Smoker table made of Cedar. Thats going to be about it this weekend. Saturday I’m traveling to Talladega, Alabama to CMP Range to shoot in the GLOCK XXV match as part of the GSSF. They are expecting some 200 shooters and the range is located behind the Talladega Motor Sports Speedway. Looks like it will be a long hot day but I’m excited to get the opportunity. So so what’s on your agenda this weekend. Share your projects and pictures that you are working on. We all love to see them and hear about what your doing. Whatever you do this weekend, have fun and be safe!

September 21, 20187 yr Popular Post Well, the siding project is coming to an end so tomorrow I’ll be hanging facia on the back side of the house. Been a great project but I have projects stacking up in the shop with Christmas rapidly approaching.

September 22, 20187 yr Nothing in the shop. Demoing at Ag Museum and I was only one there for a while , no one could find the key to the storage area where our lathe was locked up... took three people to find that. Then traffic was very ligh today. Going back tomorrow , maybe better.... at least no set up.
September 22, 20187 yr Great work big John!! Hope you have a great time at the matches! Me, well, just still organizing, and realizing my shop needs more attention than I thought, even though all my big machinery is gone, all of it, I am down to my Shopsmith, and a workbench, and one wall with overhead cabinets above my cutoff table, it still seems I am struggling to get organized. I am currently planning a floor to ceiling wall cabinet 48" wide to accommodate my tools, all my hand tools, and other smaller power hand held tools that are now sitting on the floor of our garage such as my routers and drill, skill saw. I am thinking something along these lines: But the area where the bins are, will be shelves for odd n ends, routers, drills, skil saw etc. The top two thirds for hand tools. I had a cabinet like this years ago in the shop I was employed in, I loved it.
September 22, 20187 yr John, I wish I could go shooting with you. I used to do a lot of shooting but can't anymore. I went to Camp Perry one year and had a great time.
