Good question, for better or worse this workshop has solid bricks. That means I can drill wherever I want. For light loads I use wall plug cord that I cut to the lengths and dyna-bolts for heavy load. Or did you mean something other than my conduit fittings and so on?

Hi Sam,

I think that covers it, I was particularly interested in how you attached the frame for the fastener storage given it was on the edge of the bricks. I'm a bit suss about it as I've got blesser blocks.

Cheers

Chris

When viewed from the front of the containers the back left upright that's tucked behind the brick pier is indeed bolted to it. However if it and the upright from the other side goes down to the ground then there is little force on it. In your case no I wouldn't go drilling into a Bessa brick but you could have a long flat tab coming off it to go away from the edge and then use a long Dyna bolt into the Mortar course instead.

This is my North wall. The Linisher with it's belts has it's own contained area. The light above it turns on automatically when the machine is activated.

Currently my Mill/drill has my tapping head in it, it can be seen as why I modified the side of the machine to hold those steel guides for the handle off this head.

To the right is my prototype fitting area and some of the shelves are for parts that need to be worked on.
