Well I didn't do as much riding this year as I wanted/should have/could have, altho the rides I did take were great (Bennington Bash, Triumph Truck in CT, Tech Day at Charlies, etc). I found myself spending a lot of time in the basement. Nice and cool down there in the summer, lots of tools to play with. What more can you ask for??
So it started when I made this bench...
Then this clamp rack...
Then I got a kicka$$ tablesaw (used with a LOT of extras).
Then I pimped out the saw with an outfeed table and a custom overhead guard and dust collection.
The table folds in case I need to move it
Somewhere along the way I also built a book case for a friend who had a baby, and a few other little items for myself.
IT was building the book case that I realised I needed a router table, so I made one...
It's got great built in dust collection, and an ambient air filter built into the base.
Most recently I built a scrap lumber cart to help me keep organized.
Right now I've got 3 christmas presents going. I'm making a small (7" tall) wooden christmas tree for Kim's parents. They don't have room for a real one, so I hope they like it! Also making a little step stool that has the step that flips up the be a chair back for our niece who's almost 1 1/2. Plus a small planting tray for my aunt who's in a nursing home. So far the tree is the trickiest!!
Anyway I haven't been around here much, so I figured I would give you all an update! I have LOTS more pics of everything, I can go into detail on the building of each thing if anyone wants to know more. Just lemme know!
