    Unshopping a Shop With Landscaping

    Ooooh yes. I recall you had a heap of leftover rebar... I assume that's gone, but if not, there's more trellis. :-D

    Unshopping a Shop With Landscaping

    I started out doing a 3ft wide walkway in concrete pavers to the door, but I'm thinking I'll expand it to a patio and stick some outdoor furniture down there and maybe a goldfish pond. Thought about maybe moving our gazebo / patio shelter down there too. Wainscot helps... you saw mine. Rocks...

    Epstein’s Day 2023

    Box art request: aliens playing with trains and listening to ham radio. Buzz and BB-8 were on the floor so I figured they fit in with the artwork. In addition to the goodies I ordered, they sent me one of those snazzy Lang stickers. 😁

    You probably don't want their press plates anyway. They seem to be cast scrap metal.

    1/4” Bit Ratchet

    Those won't retain standard 1/4" bits though, if that matters.

    Epstein’s Day 2023

    I didn't catch the alternate meaning of this wording til someone reacted to it. But hey, let's roll with it! :evil::ROFLMAO:

    1/4” Bit Ratchet

    Also a fan of the Vim HBR5. Been meaning to buy more to keep lying around... that HBR3 would probably do me just as good for the most part.

    Epstein’s Day 2023

    This out of nostalgia... my dad had something similar when I was a kid. https://www.harryepstein.com/lufkin-6-home-shop-universal-folding-rule-2.html Probably a set of these... looks like handy little booger-diggers. https://www.harryepstein.com/ullman-4-piece-hook-and-pick-set-psp-4.html I...

    Curious what the sparkies think (Wago Video)

    I guess my workshop will be the test of it... I wago'd all my receptacles.

    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT Jawn's 30x40 Morton in the 'burbs.

    I moved the lathe, finally. I also got a lot more Wall Control pegboard up. I made a mistake though... wanted a slightly smaller bench than I had it on up at the house so I bought a Seville Classics 4ft bench which is the exact size needed. I have another Seville Classics bench that is rock...

    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT Jawn's 30x40 Morton in the 'burbs.

    Engine hoist with the boom slid out to half ton was just able to reach high enough to get the mill/drill into the truck bed. It's one heavy chunk. Probably about 700lbs or so. Got it out of the truck, had ordered some feet for the stand but they're not coming til Tuesday. It previously sat on a...

    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT Jawn's 30x40 Morton in the 'burbs.

    Trying to get the mill/drill out of the basement. Engine hoist picks it up but the carryall on the tractor will not. Plan B is see if the engine hoist can lift it as high as the truck bed. If not, I'll see if I can get it onto the trailer.

    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT Jawn's 30x40 Morton in the 'burbs.

    Hauled the Kubota and bush hog to NC to help clean up my late sister's property and move implements around. It worked like a champ. Also, first long distance trip in the new-to-me GMC truck. Definitely better at towing than the old '87 R10. Speaking of the R10, it's full of stuff now. And no...

    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT Jawn's 30x40 Morton in the 'burbs.

    My itty bitty Kubota had been acting up... it'd fight me when I tried to mash the go pedal sometimes. Checked the hydraulic fluid and it looks to be water contaminated. So, starting point is get fresh oil in there and see where to go from there. Got it up on ramps and jackstands, that got it up...

    Sailing Magic Carpet

    I bought that about a dozen years ago. Also a number of years ago at an estate sale I picked up a stack of other books about boatbuilding. Obviously the desire to build one is a slow smolder that hasn't turned into a fire yet. But, maybe someday. Now you've got me looking at Parker's website...

    Sailing Magic Carpet

    Speaking of boat musuems... I've been to this one in Beaufort, NC. It was fantastic. I'd love to take part in their boatbuilding classes. https://ncmaritimemuseumbeaufort.com/

    Sailing Magic Carpet

    Something I'd like to do when I have some other projects out of the way is build a sailboat. I'd love to go explore the Pamlico sound in NC. That would contribute to something of a sharpie style being a likely candidate.
