Sorry guys, but some time we just need to clean to get a fresh start.

Todd, It's a direct drive furnace fan, I'm going to make an air cleaner with it.

Nyah nyah, my shop's cleaner!

...then again, that's only because it consists of a shed with whitewashed walls containing exactly 1 item, a bandsaw. And nothing else for the time being.

It won't last.

Good to see you back Mattia, i'm sure the career you're pursuing will definitely help you keep your tools and wood in surgical order though!

You guys are funny.

Well, here are some more clean pictures to punish you with.

I decided to try and change the layout abit as I was just not happy with the drum sander and table taking up so much of the middle floor area and leaving so little by the bench.

So, here are the before and after of the re-layout.









and one more



Notice anything else .........

Looks like a brand new fence on your tablesaw. Also, looks like a Stew Mac box on your countertop, what's in it, what's in it, what's in it.

Post subject: 

Yup, new fence indead. Well, the Stew Mac box brought me a fret saw blade at Christmas time, the blade went back for some other items and I just never tossed the box. Typical of a pack rat
