I have a version of this one, my brother made it for me. The big one I found on this site, some time ago.

Somethings wrong, no pics showing.

When do the trusses arrive?

That gambrel roof is great for a shop/loft, looks like a challenge to build. Well done.

Go buy 3 hockey pucks, and put them under the feet of your compressor, half the noise will go away.

Thanks for the help, I’m now a member on Home Shop Machinists.

It’s a Busy Bee B244. It’s an 8x18”, and can cut threads. It came with a whole load of accessories and tools. I’ve got it mounted on the bench, and I’m playing around, and I still have all my fingers and haven’t lost any blood. 😃😃 Can anyone recommend a forum of tool users like this that I can...

My lights arrived today, and they are installed. I like the color and the brightness, no blue at all. Instant on, no humming, looks like about half the power the old style fat fluorescent tubes used. Thanks for all the help.

OP here, Thanks for all the input, I’ve ordered the 5000K.

I’m converting to LED in my shop. Fixtures available in 4200 or 5000 color choices. Will my 65 year old eyes find the 5000 color too blue? I want lightest and brightest, some ads state 4200 is sunlight, do I want more than that?

Re: 40 X 60 Shop, House and Acerage Any updates? Hope you don’t have any local flooding.

Where ya at? Different advise for Alaska compared to Texas.

Hey pgray , there’s a guy over on ADV Rider doing the same thing, even took a similar picture! ����

Re: 40 X 60 Shop, House and Acerage I’m a few miles away, I recognize the hillside. Nice build, will be fun to watch. Looks like you got good building weather for the next week or more.

Did those Harold’s have folding window cranks? I think my neighbour had one, and I got few rides in it when I was a kid.
