In the home stretch on Das Lathe Bench. Got the conflict
between the piano hinged debris chute and the shelf
worked out, added a rosewood knob the the hinged dust
chute so I don't have to push it up from under the bench
and came up with a way to
- put a lip on the back of the bench top to keep
things I don't want falling off the back while
having the option of sweeping / air blasting
stuff I do want off the bench top
- keep debris from falling on to my shelf below
the bench top.

Good thing I'm using the Build / Design As You Go
Approach for this thing. I thought I'd worked out
just about everything before I started building -
but I knew an unforseen or two would pop up
somewhere along the way.

So here's the next two pages on Das Lathe Bench

As always, comments, suggestions, questions and
constructive criticism are appreciated.
