Studio shots
I’m gradually getting settled with my new lathe in my still-newish studio digs, but here are some pictures, finally.
I plan to install pegboard on the divider behind my lathe for easy tool access.
I’m still finding places for many things. In the meantime they clutter my work bench. Notice the handy space for wood storage below my bench.
You can see the lathe (a 1.5-hp Delta) and work space of the studio’s owner and my shop mate, Pat Reddemann, in the background.
Right now, my old lathe abuts the new one. The plan is to set up my vacuum chuck on the old lathe for both Pat and I to use whenever, without having to change the setup on our primary lathes. We will probably find a new spot for my old lathe soon, so I’ll have more working room at the end of my new lathe.
Pat got this new 18″ Grizzly bandsaw just a couple of months ago and has already gone through several blades.
This storage area and my tool chest area to my right as I face my lathe. The cabinet is full of wood. The shelves hold mostly half-finished pieces and finishes and solvents.
Pat and I share larger logs we’ve harvested together: a lot of mesquite, but also some African sumac and pepper tree.
Under the tarp is yet more of the wood I’ve harvested from locally felled trees, mostly mesquite.
