Still Trying

SteveM:
Thanks for the encouragement. It is getting easier although I still need multiple attempts far to often:) My tool grinding has definitely improved and I have upgraded to at 9x49 Shop Fox mill with DRO and very slightly used 12x36 lathe. I recently made an offer(accepted) on a small acreage which includes a 30x60 ft shop for my retirement putzing so I look forward to spending more time in the shop in the next couple years.

Wow, 30 x 60 feet!   The stuff that dreams are made of.   :bugeye:   :bugeye:   :bugeye: 

Our entire back yard is about the same area as that and my workshop is a mere 12' x 8' (outside measurements).   :bang:   :bang:   :bang:

I've been at it for nearly 40 years and I still learn something new most every day(and I still make mistakes) :doh:
Those who never make any mistakes rarely make anything at all.

Only through practice and nothing else does experience come.....OZ

Welcome Steve  :wave:

30x60 ft. shop..  :bugeye:  :bugeye: 1800 sq. ft. ! bleedin' 'ell that's near enough the square footage of my bungalow. Been in the engineering game all my life & since retirement & getting involved with Model Eng. am STILL learning, asking questions & yes, still making mistakes   :doh:  you never stop so don't give up, just enjoy  :headbang:

Cheers
George

SteveM:
Actually it turned out to be 30x60 This is from last summer.

This is from a few days ago.

And this is a top opening lateral file. I have two which match and they'll be end pieces with 12x12in cubbies behind for stock storage and a 12ft 30in deep work bench for clean work.[/URL][/img]
