Hi Chip. I agree with Lew that some pictures of your shop would be a nice addition to your shop description.

I will add some pics after the first of the year. :) I messed up my shoulder and yesterday found out that I have 2 torn muscles, two torn tendons, a bone chip and an impinged joint that needs to be surgically repaired. I am waiting for a call from my doc, he wants it done asap so I don’t tear anything else. After that I’ll take some pics and post them!!

You have a really nice shop in which to work. This one definately was worth the wait to see. I really like the mats you have added in front of your tools. These help, I am sure, to prevent fatigue from working on the concrete floor. You have organized your shop well and you have some nice tools to play with.
Thanks for the post. I enjoyed visiting with you.

nice looking shop, you have some very nice machines. I use the same colored mats. they do help – kind of a pain to clean around though, but with the big dust collector maybe you do not have that problem :-).

Actually, the mats around the lathe are a pita to clean, but my old wet/dry vac does a pretty good job.
The mats are meant for kids play areas, but they work great on the cement floor, help my tired old feet and are pretty cheap at that big club with that guys name on it.
