Shop is down for the month of April
Mar 28^th, 2011 at 5:52pm

Shutting down the shop for a month to take time for a much needed cleanup and repairs. Snow storm caved in the roof in the blizzard we had in 2010 then my health took a dive. Finally feeling better and getting started. Rented a Pack-Rat container and moved the tools out over the weekend a little more clean up and the contractors will be able to start putting the ceiling back up and cut a door between the two shops. Couple of weeks and I should have a new shop or at least something organized!

Whoo Hoo!
For the most parts its done Smiley

Still have to find places for a few things and need to make rollers for the dual belt sander. The dust collector is all back together and cleaned out. Went over each machine and checked all belts bearings and bushings and cleaned and lubed everything. Had a bad bearing on the band saw and a bad belt on one of the sanders. Realinged all the cutters on the duplicator. Hung some T5 light fixtures and added a few receptacles to the shop. Now the trick is to keep it this way

Looks like you've done a good job of organization, and now preventative maintenance. Now you have an even bigger job ahead of you, making that shop look like it is a working ship. So, get busy and make some curls. Rev. Doug Miller
