Nice tour of an extremely well kept shop Trout but where did you keep the horse :D

Some happy hours spent in there I'll wager - thanks for the insight

Excellent video trout. Did I see a couple of freshly dead heads on the shelf there? :D
 
If it's true that he who dies with the most toys wins, then I think Trout is well on the way to a gold medal!

One of these millenia I can only hope to have a shop so well stocked and organized. Thanks for sharing, Trout

Thanks guys. My best toy is my tractor cause I never outgrew playing in the dirt.

I think "dead heads" is a fair description of those shelf apparitions. :eek:
 
Very nice video.
Just watched it and then once again with my wife.

1. I was asked to report that we both believe that dennis should get 1 gazillion karma points for organization
2. I was asked to ask for another 1.7 gazillion karma points for cleanliness
3. I moved that we should give the guy at least 5-10 karma points for his machining, but I was reminded that this does not matter given #1, and especially #2, and that we both agree on this central point
4. I was asked to report out mutual resolution not to get a mill bigger than our Sherline, cause trout has one that's only slightly bigger, and so it should be OK for me :-\


[Thanks, Dennis, for setting back my scheme to get a Bridgeport this year :mad: ]

[Last time I show her anything from HMEM]

take care,

Well trout i must say you have a nice little shop. :-* I just wish i had stock in Home Depot seeing all the fastener hardware you have i would have quadrupled my investment.

I know how you are because i am the same i cant stand mess!!!!!

Thanks guys...surprised to to see this thread pop up again. I noticed yesterday that the video has been viewed over a thousand times and yet some of my engines have only hit in the low hundreds. scratch.gif

As it happens, two months ago (same time I retired) the wife decided she wants a new potting shed built onto the end of my work shed. This caused me to install another door that goes out the back of the shed because her potting area will block tractor and ATV access to the existing shed door (for welder, air compressor usage, etc.). That one door caused me to rebuild most of the interior shelving. I confess, it is fun and it isn't the first time I've done this, not by far. It's taken me 27 years to get it this organized. If I can keep the horses and pigeons out, it might smell better in there too. :-X
