Hello,
I've posted before. But here is a little more. Retired (2X) and relocated from ENC to the CSRA (Augusta GA area) on the SC side. Bought a smallish house with a 1600 sq. ft. airplane hanger that is morphing into a wood shop. There is a grass taxiway behind the hanger. The taxiway turns and twists (on pavement) to a 3000' runway. No, I don't fly.
A status update on the 's'hanger'. Finally got far enough along on the house remodel that I was able to get some work done on the s'hanger.
Thanks to help from John and David from Lexington Electric (Columbia SC), and my SIL (John's son), we ran some electrical last Wednesday.
Thursday turned out to be move-in day. Well the stuff was already in there but since we moved into the house, the s'hanger floor space has started to become available so I did a draft layout.
Still a lot of spotting to do. In fact today I switched the lathes and moved the tool grinders near the bi-fold door and installed a corded reel at the door to get some power outside - the shed runs outside and down the left wall.
Down the right is the DP, BS, drum sander, and planer. Down the center is the slider and a homemade downdraft table. Down the left is the two lathes and the RAS. The RAS is the problem as I'm out of wall space due to a 2 gallon water heater and a sink that drains out the wall. To the right is another 600 sq. ft. of my daughter's family goods. They are moving about 1/4 mile away in a couple of years.
Need to hang some wall cabinets near the two lathes. Thought I would screw some 1X4's in between the high spots of the interior sheet metal wall into the girt (@84") at the top and into the sheet metal down the wall about 30". Add a French cleat at the girt and a spacer at the bottom of the cabinet - or another French cleat.
Mentally thinking through dust collection (cyclone on hand) and compressed air piping (maybe clamp together (former) and PEX (latter)). Maybe time for sketching.
More later.
