my new shop

[stephenD]

I have been using a corner of the back patio for my shop untill about a month ago.
My good wife convinced me to get a "tough shed" in the back yard to use as a shop so my tools would be secure.
About 6 months ago she mentioned that if I purchased any more tools I would need a shop to put them in, so I bought a belt/disk sander to go with the Hawk, 10" band saw and other small power tools.   That did it.  That's why she insisted I get a shop building.  Worked for me.

I finally got the electric hooked up over the weekend and so had time to do some cutting again.

I started with these small projects.  The piece with the bark on it is a cut from a misquite branch from a tree in the front yard.  The Large heart and arrow heads are from the perishing grapefruit tree in the back yard.  The smaller harts are from an unknown wood I picked up from someone's scrap at the local "Desert Woodcrafters" club here in Tucson.  

I will post some photos of the before and after of the interior of the shop later.

Oh crum....the photo is too large.....crum

Congratulations on having a wife that supports you hobby.  It is nice to have a shop to work in especially in the winter time.  As for the photos use paint or one of the other picture editors to resize it to a size that the board will accept.  Looking forward to seeing your shop.

which format will work?

jpg or gif works well.  Size is up to you but realize this 640 x 640 is a good size to work from.
