It's almost 7PM on Memorial Day ... think I'll take the rest of the
weekend off:

Ahh.. a low assembly walkaround bench. A must have.

( Under which I keep my nailers, hoses, nails, and I put 4 duplex
receptacles, one on each side. The one in my old shop had 135 PSI
connectors on each side as well.)
I know, tripping over cords and hoses *is* a lot of fun but.....G

Nice work Karl. But - weren't you supposed to take the weekend off for
raucous sex, cheap drugs and rock-n-roll? Or is it cheap sex, roll your own
drugs, and rock on the front porch...

Looking good Karl.

Reminds me of a shop project I did where all the hardware came from garage
sales. I will never get prices like that again. If I recall correctly,
something like 25 drawer pulls for $3. Always good to save a buck or two.
Particularly in a shop.

Besides the "reclamation/recycle" aspect of this project, I decided to
use my Festool stuff for everything ... "no MSG, or table saw was used
in this product".

Even the PC557 (butt jointed with biscuits, glued and screwed the drawer
cabs, something I would never do to a client) hooked up to the CT22
without any adapters and the absence of sawdust is remarkable. I put the
Makita LS1013 on a Ridgid miter saw stand and used it outside only ...
the neighbors got that bit of sawdust. EG

That will, of course, change when the rest of my big iron shows up, but
it has gotten me to thinking about "in the shop" dust control for the
first time (it is ALWAYS a number one priority on a job site, however).

The only equipment he needs is a frig, to hold the beer, and a chair,
to sit and admire his handiwork.

Recycling lumber: That's what I did for remodeling much of my latest/
newest shop.... still in progress.

Good job, Karl. When you're done, you can come help me with mine.

That's what I like to see: Guys who have a good balance between work
and play. (I only worked 2 of the 3 days.)
