New Member, New Workshop and Hello!

[DavidJHolmes]

Hi All,

Thought I would introduce myself with a picture from my workshop! Its not the tidiest, only been in about 6months so still building storage when I'm feeling motivated, that said, it's not the messiest either (hammer) I'll post some more as things progress. I have a few tools the main one being my pride and joy, a CNC Router. Finally bought a table saw (well a site saw) which works well for me and with the Jointer/Thicknesser I can finally process my timber without the need of having to buy it done. Main issue I have at the moment is dust :evil: so working on some dust collection as I go along.

Currently making a Zero Clearance Insert for my table saw after a piece got sucked in and went with a good wallop which almost resulted in a trouser change! :mrgreen:

The dust isn't thick until it's up to your knees!

Welcome.

What have you used the router for so far?

Hello and welcome... Workshop looks good. Can I ask what are the 2 items in the top left of your image are they rotary storage pots? If so where can you get them?

Welcome.

I made the cupboards along the back with them in the shop, and various bits and pieces. I make sensory boards for children and currently do half tone photos in black or white board. It also makes you really lazy so when you want a 300mm circle I just fire it up lol! I'll post some photos up when I can find them!

They are rotary storage pots, I was given them as a present. They are really useful for keeping screws, washers and the likes. I'll see if I can find out where they came from. Might have been somewhere like Costco but I'll find out for sure.
