Wow
That looks a lot different since I was there after the Amoskeag auction.
The project has taken a lot of time and effort but it will be a place where you can spread out your stuff, photograph guns and actually relax. And maybe invite friends in for a coffee or something else.
Let me know if you need help moving stuff in Dean-o.

Of course now that this is almost done, you can start on that stairway.........

Thanks George - you really know how to cast a dark cloud over an otherwise sunny disposition....

Aha!, So, now I see what's going on here. Georgie comes over for his fabulous Hayes Try Gun wrench, sneaks into my barn, and reports back the current state of affairs? So who appointed you The Good Housekeeping Hall Monitor? I thought that was Chucks job. He's been after me to clean up my basement workshop, so I spent an entire rainy Saturday down there. I don't 'spose that rat, Purtill mentioned that did he?
Truth is it was also to make room for my new Rockwell Uni-Saw.
Some of these projects require turning (in the basement) then milling (in the barn). The Bridgeport is in the barn, partly because it weighs about one ton, and partly because there's about 1/2" clearance between the ceiling in the basement, when I have to pull the draw- bar up. My wife told me I couldn't bore a 1" hole in the kitchen floor.

From now on, all (Non-Paying) customers will no longer be allowed in the production area. They will have to sit in the waiting room and read Martha Stewart, or Better Home Journal.
Wattaya bet now we hear from Stosh, telling me to clean my Bridgeport.

My barn might be a mess, but it's cleaner than that 'Charlie Purple'. Don't stink as bad either.

Edgar I did not leak a word about what a mess your barn was and that even mud covered Charlie didn't want to come in. I will however publicly acclaim your new and improved basement and that larger than an aircraft carrier table saw you now possess.

I apologize George. It would appear there's a mole out there somewhere.

There is the slim possibility Dean just took a guess and nailed it.

Good Ole Charlie Purple; he was having a ball mucking about in the pond. I think that's a good sign.
