Shrinking Workshop

Postby Rickxr2 » Fri Mar 17, 2006 8:53 pm

:shock: TO ALL TEARDROP BUILDERS OR DREAMERS :shock:

Have you noticed most every phase of construction often requires the purchase of a new tool. You have just cut the sides of your teardrop and are master of the jig saw, but your jig saw won’t put a fancy edge on that cabinet door, so you need a router. It’s not my fault most tools on the market are made for a specific use? Not that I mind, but my shop seems to be shrinking. The floor space is getting smaller and smaller. As hard as it is to resist, I don’t think a wood lathe or router will ever find a place in the living room, (the lighting is too bad). Frightning as it may seem, it has happened to others, and it could happen to you. Very few are immune to the new tool proudly displayed in the main isle of the hardware store. So remember, if the walls of your shop seem to close in on you, and the path to your table saw starts to narrow, don’t reach for your digital ruler, or your sonic tape measure, they won’t help you here. Just step back and take a deep breath, for you have just entered another dimension known as “THE TEARDROP ZONE”.

:D :D

Teardrop Zone

Hmmm....I suppose the size of the shop probably wouldn't matter for some. Just more room to fill up. TD stuff sometimes overflows into the living room and kitchen. By the way, have you been taking lessons from Dean in Eureka?

:R He has a one bedroom house with about a 12 car garage/shop that just keeps filling up. Be sure to keep a path clear in case you have to bug out in a hurry.

Murphy's Dictum #709a...no matter how much storage/work space you have, you will fill it beyond any reasonable capacity
