As you might suspect, it is hard for me to find time to get out to the shop this time of the year, but today I snuck in a few hours. Here is what happened. Enjoy the yucks. Bet it has happened to you, too.
One of the frustrations of putting a shop back together is finding hardware. You know, screws, bolts, nuts, washers, and 'stuff.' When I moved from California, I gave that stuff away. It was a very expensive decision. This time I loaded it up to take with me. Here is one trunk full, half unloaded and laying around everywhere:
A while back, Harbor Freight had these nifty bins on sale for $10 for 20 bins. I bought 6 cases - 120 bins. I'm set. Cool.
Now the wall I want to mount these on have a couple of stacks of moving blankets cuttering things up.
I'll have to make a shelf. I need to rip some material. Guess I'll need to get the saw operational. I got power to it a couple of weeks ago. I'll just have to add the outfeed table. Oops. Have to find the angle iron for the back of the saw. Well, that only took about a half hour. Did find whole bunch of other stuff that I've been wondering where it was hiding. I did have to install the right extension first, though.
And then the outfeed. Here I got so buzy, I failed to take pictures. I was bogged down in finding hardware to attach things. Isn't this where I entered this scenario? But to preservere. Finally.
Now, where is the fence? And the splitter, and the wrenches? Maybe a blade would be good, too.
Ahh, shoot. My feet are freezing and my fingers are numb. I thnk I earned a couple of fingers of Woodford Reserve tonight.
