| Justine's stepdad,
David, passed away in 2003 of inoperable brain tumors. He sold off
all his power tools after the tumors were discovered and it was determined
he had less than 6 months. We purchased some of them to help him
out even though we didn't really need them. As well as the Craftsman bench
saw, Ryobi planer and Craftsman jointer below, we acquired an arc welder,
power washer, air hoses and a lot of miscellaneous tools and accessories.
Justine was cutting out wood today in the workshop, so I got her to take
some new pictures. |
Our workshop from the back
door of the house. We had major winds 2 weeks ago and it tore off
some of the rolled roofing. We purchased tin roofing last week but
it wasn't installed until March 17. See next page for photos of that
project. Justine's using the band saw in the workshop door to the right. |
The Delta Band Saw just
outside the workshop. Nearly all power tools are mounted on stands so they
can be carried outside for use to limit the amount of sawdust to be cleaned
up in the workshop. My '89 GMC pickup in the background. Justine wants
a bigger workshop BBAAADD!! |
Ryobi 12 inch wide Planer
on it's stand. Behind it is the electronics workbench with parts cabinets
and test equipment. |
Craftsman Jointer-Planer
on it's stand. |
DeWalt DW-723 Miter Saw
Stand Justine got for Christmas this year. She just took it out of
the box and set it up today. She got the saw (see right) for her
birthday last July (2003). |
DeWalt 12 inch Sliding
Compound Miter Saw still in the kitchen, never been used. Awaiting
someone to help carry it out to the workshop and mount it on its stand
in the left photo. Being in a wheelchair, I can't help. |
Justine cut these out of
3/4" plywood today with the DeWalt Sabre saw. They will require a
bit of sanding before they're ready for painting. This will be Santa in
his sleigh next Christmas. Behind the wood, left to right, Delta 10" Bench
saw with gas can below, Drill Press (orange), Delta 21" Scroll Saw, and
Black & Decker/ DeWalt 10" Radial Arm Saw purchased back in 1972. |
Craftsman 10 inch Circular
Bench Saw sitting on the workbench. We have a stand for it, but we
just haven't mounted it yet. |
