What did you do in your shop today?

@DKMD , I am assuming airbrush painted? Those are great. But the way I lose lures (I’m not even a so-so fisherman....), I would hate to use those. My flies, no big deal, but those......

Thanks! I did use an airbrush on these... I have a lot to learn with the airbrush!

I haven’t been fishing in years, so there’s not much chance of me losing these.:unknown:
 
I've been continuing to get the shop packed up and ready for the move. Today I moved somewhere between 700 and 800BF of lumber out of the shed and into the garage to prepare for the move. Will be easier to load from the garage than from the shed. @T. Ben can attest to the size of the stack, lol. He can also attest to how much wood went into his truck, lol.

OMG my poor truck was sagging pretty bad. I was not prepared for that!! Thanks Matt.

And thank you! It helped me clear some stuff out while I get ready to move. I'm glad it went to a good home instead of ending up in a burn pile somewhere!

Now I’ve got to figure where to put it all and what to do with it,not a bad problem to have I guess.

Just means it's time to reorganize the shop and add in more storage options!
 
Not a lot of time in the shop, but started working out a system for making multiple birdhouse ornaments. Easy to make one, but streamlining the process to speed it up.

Got to say, glad I cut a bunch of cheap featureless cottonwood into spindle blanks last year. Makes for great practice wood!
 
That's what ill be doing!!

Certainly a lot easier than what I'm doing! :sarcastic:

Of course, a 2 car garage awaits me in WI. Will be nice to have my whole shop in one place, rather than split between the garage and the basement! :good2:
 
Ya but it's in wisconsin:lol2:

House will be 5 blocks from Lake Michigan - about 3 blocks to the right of what's in the picture. :ok:

And, at about 8 or 9 blocks away from our house, think this will make a great destination for family walks? :unknown:

Due to some other conversations, I got my tail out of the chair and started in on some organizing and my router table build. Bought the Kreg lift, another Bosch router, and a selection of other parts. Following some plans I found at DIYMontreal.com. Will even try the cabinet eventually. Pretty straight forward, I think......this is really my first project of this size and complexity.

I cleaned the shop all day long. I'll get pix tomorrow to prove it. I'm beat. I just got out of the shower, and I'm setting for the night in my recliner.
 
Not long ago I had purchased a scroll saw from Sears when the local branch was going out of business.
I decided that before I assemble all that that I would get some mobile basis for all my power tools. I bought the bases at Harbor freight and to say the instructions were great would not be true. I had to make some adjustments but I got them all put together for the chopsaw my tablesaw and the scroll saw.

Shop is all packed up. Have about one box of stuff left to pack in the basement shop. Have a few things to get out of the shed.

Of course, though the shop may be packed, there is still so much more to pack before the move...
