A few more chisels on the left, screwdrivers on the right, and heavier stuff on the back wall. I'm going to have to redo the chisel mounts as they aren't quite right. And sort out how to keep the doors closed.

But it's a lot better than the pegboard that was there.

So I started in shipping and receiving but an opportunity to move to the production side came up and I jumped at it. They believe in jumping right in with supervision to learn hans on with real customer orders. Yesterday got to learn to run a Foley toothing machine and worked on hammer setting teeth.

Magnetic cabinet latch top and bottom. Simple, easy, inexpensive.
 
Not so much in the shop , but outside. It’s been one of my “projects” to add on storage to the shop. Poles have been up a year or two—- got the joists snd decking up. Now to get the tin on, then move on to the floor— leveling & pave stones. Then will do the sides & door.
Decided to put the “move” on after seeing some of my patients either my age or younger that can’t even think about doing something like this.
When completed will be 8 x40.

David, I like how you put the emphasis on the "move" And about the fact that many people can't even think about moving like that. Exactly why I became so proactive in my own health and fitness. I "move" everyday, do something for my health's sake. And most importantly to eat good and fuel your body with real food. It allows me to do the things I did when I was much younger even if it is at a slower pace. But still moving!
 
I’ll show sone productivity that happened earlier this week, before going to a CME event.
Got the roof to the addition dried in, next is “tin”, followed by leveling floor and adding pavers. Then will add siding.

Need input:
My “ student”— another medical professional called and asked if I could cut some rounds for him— sure I said. Ended up cutting about 15, varying sizes— 5-12 inches. Wants to pay me—- what would y’all recommend?? (Just for reference, have others that may want some done— not thinking this will be big source of income— more to keep equipment ready to use)
Tonite, since he insisted, he’s going to get me a new set of tires for the 14in Delta.

Did he provide the logs?
