I have been using a corner of the back patio for my shop untill about a month ago.
My good wife convinced me to get a "tough shed" in the back yard to use as a shop so my tools would be secure.
About 6 months ago she mentioned that if I purchased any more tools I would need a shop to put them in, so I bought a belt/disk sander to go with the Hawk, 10" band saw and other small power tools. That did it. That's why she insisted I get a shop building. Worked for me.
I finally got the electric hooked up over the weekend and so had time to do some cutting again.
I started with these small projects. The piece with the bark on it is a cut from a misquite branch from a tree in the front yard. The Large heart and arrow heads are from the perishing grapefruit tree in the back yard. The smaller harts are from an unknown wood I picked up from someone's scrap at the local "Desert Woodcrafters" club here in Tucson.
I will post some photos of the before and after of the interior of the shop later.
Oh crum....the photo is too large.....crum
