My work place,,,,"Come on in."

Well now I understand. ANYbody could turn out work like yours if he had a shop like that. <g>

Seriously, it is indeed a lucky man who gets paid to do what he would do for free. Very nice operation you have there, Les.

TopE5,

Yes its a Tiger stop, they work really well. I like them. We have one on the sliding table saw as well. Sure makes it nice indeed.

Thanks!

Eh, it’s OK I guess.

OK, who am I kidding. I’d relinquish body parts for the chance to work in a shop like that! ;)

Mighty fine bunch of equipment you have there in an equally fine shop.

and all along i was thinking you guys were doing your stuff with hand tools ! lol great shop ! thanks for the tour

I really admire your bigger operation. I am getting wore out by working by myself. It would be great to surround myself with talented people to work for me.

Great shop/office. What a place to spend the day.

Lesl,

This is a great looking shop and I did notice some sawdust on the floor as well. You wouldn’t need someone to clean up would ya?

Seriously you are blessed to have such a gift and to be able to live your dream as well.

Thank you for sharing this small piece of yourself with us.

Great shop, Les. It seems to have everything it needs without a bunch of unneeded machines in the way. It’s great to have room to operate. I’ve been impressed with the products that come from this shop.Thanks for the post.

Hey, Les, can I come over and play? That looks like a lot of fun.

-- Being nice gets you stuff!

Incredible place you’ve got there. Love the huge veneer press(es?)...I used to work in a shop some 15 years ago with a large table like that. Sadly I haven’t seen one since.

Thanks for sharing, Les!

Nice Shop & office. How’s business been going for you now in this economy?

-- Dennis Zongker

Dennis, we have been really busy the last two years. So far this year we have been doing just fine, busy all the time. We have enough right now to get us through this year and if things pan out like expected we’ll be ok the first part of next year as well. But I guess things could change at any given time. We’ve been lucky so far.
