The table is off the K&T! It was actually a lot easier than I was expecting it to be. The good news is the ways look pretty good. The bad news is the bearings need replaced and they are EXPENSIVE (at least to me)! See the link in my bio for the YouTube video on how I removed it.

Finished the lathe work on the steady rest knobs for the 13″ South Bend lathe.
New machine day in the shop!
Finally finished this bathroom cabinet I have been making, on and off, for about 2-1/2 years.
Finally finished this bathroom cabinet I have been making, on and off, for about 2-1/2 years. 😂 I made the entire thing from 3/4″ square tube and angle and some expanded metal, all TIG welded. Then added some antiqued wood planks. Last thing to do was to make these knobs. Check the link in my bio for a video.

Hard to believe it’s been two years since the workshop was framed and roofed.
Hard to believe it’s been two years since the workshop was framed and roofed. A lot has changed since this photo. And it’s planned usage changed a bit, too. For what was meant to be a combination workshop/winter Jeep storage is now becoming a fulltime workshop. No room for the Jeep with the addition of the lathe, and a future vertical mill.

We have the power! Got both ends of the buried feeder wire hooked up and I now have some much needed juice in the shop.

These little helpers have made installing the siding on the shop a breeze.
These little helpers have made installing the siding on the shop a breeze. They attach to the row below and give you a shelf for the next row, leaving the proper reveal. Sweet!

I added these downspout diverters to the workshop.
I added these downspout diverters to the workshop. Since I had the trencher, I dug some shallower ones for these. Read my blog post (link in bio) for more!

Getting the trench dug for the workshop power. 6″ wide by 36″ deep. This thing is a beast. Read my blog post (link in bio) for more!
