Workshop Extension

Post by timbuck » Sun Mar 31, 2013 11:23 pm

Over the years suffering with accute TAS.. I've aquired so much equipment and tools that I have had to extend the workshop again..16 years ago I started off with 100 sq ft, then extended it to 180 sq ft in 2003..and now I've added another 100 sq ft...but I had to have a large tree removed first before I could go ahead with the building.

There is a video of the build here...

I wish I could build a shed out of matchsticks too and have it last more than one Wet Season. Paddington Bears Ha! :D . Nice to see that old lathe, I have a circa 1940's Australian copy of the Southbend 9.

No it isn't "Yew" it's a rare wood found in the North of England known as "Barnsley Koa" :D you can read all about it here.
