You Put That WHERE?

[rake60]

I was doing a little cleaning up in my shop tonight and saw a few things that I hadn't
given the appropriate thought to in the past.

I have two hobbies that evidently don't fit together safely in a small basement shop.
My #1 hobby is the model machine shop.
The 2ed is restoring antique small engines.

In my cleaning up I dusted chips off the top of a parts washer that is about 8 feet away
from my mini mill....

My tool box sits at the end of my lathe bench.
I store the alcohol and naphtha that I use to run my flame licker engines in the bottom
area of the rollaway box. I cleaned chips out of there as well...

Sometimes stupidity sneaks up on us.
Or maybe I was born with it! :-\

Check out the position of my 'file rack' here...

and the files hanging above the bench grinder.

No, no, no, no ,no!!!!!!!

If one of those warding files fell off it's hook it'd be like leaving a sharpened key in the chuck

Thanks to 'dickeybird' also increased the grinder/lathe separation!

that reminds me of the shop layout I saw in a turn of the century model engineering book. they had the shelf for the painting supplies next to the forge. HMMM
