For those of you that follow this blog, and others who stop
by from time to time, I thought I would let folks know that it will be awhile
before I post another project. We have sold our home, and shop, in West
Tennessee and moving back home to the Greater Cincinnati area after being here
for the last 9 years. I moved here
for a work transfer and have been retired now for 18 months.
The big draw of
course is family, 3 children, 4 grand children, brothers, sisters, nieces, and
nephews. We were fortunate in this
economy to sell this house so quickly (less than 3 weeks) and the home we are
purchasing was under construction and we’ll be moving in Christmas week.
So for
now, my “projects” involve packing tape, boxes, and filler paper, but as others
have said, it is giving me a chance to clean out and see what exactly I have
collected over the past 9 years.
As mentioned in previous posts, some of the power tools are gone. The
workbench as well, that will be the first project in the new shop, the
Benchcrafted Shaker style bench so I will post when that project gets underway.
I will be back in the basement again, and have already
marked my space. The type of work
I do and the increased use of had tools will allow me to set up a nice area to
build the things I enjoy, and the best part is I will be able to teach my
grandson’s the joy of working with wood.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to
all!!
