It seems like everything has had to take precedence over spending time in the wood shop. From multiple visits to the dentist, oral surgeon, and endodontist to get my mouth repaired to having a new puppy in the house - each day seemed to get filled with all those needs.
So it was with some amount of joy that I began last week to get my new workshop at our lake house in order. I built a wood storage rack last weekend and will finish the supports for a plywood storage area this weekend. I loaded the rack with the wood that I have at the lake and will bring wood that I have here in Wooster down to the shop next weekend.
In between I actually got to spend a little time on the lathe. I am learning to do bowl turning on my new larger lathe. I previously turned pens and some spindels on a mini-lathe.
I have several projects in-the-mill that I would like to finish. Shop workbench cabinets need some final tweaking while the upper cabinets need doors and shelves to be ready to finish. Then comes the cherry end table that I have had sitting in the shop for several months. It needs the drawer guides and drawer fronts added. Then the top and back can be permanently attached and the finish applied. Getting these projects done by the first of the year would feel really great.
