amazingkevin Posted March 21, 2018 Report Posted March 21, 2018 I put my foot down and made myself clean up the shop that was never organized.I'm finding a lot of things I had no idea where they went.I got 3 hours work time on one can of red bull!I'm impressed.I found so much teak in board length too!A bag of walnut pieces, lots of oak, aromatic cedar by the garbage can full all cut to lenght12"-14"-16" And 18" plus lots of other hardwoods I don't recognize. now I see I need more racks to hold 5-gallon buckets laying down for storage.Picture tomorrow.i had to remove the clutter so you can see my hoarding.One member wanted to see my wood collection so maybe that was subliminally in my head that motivated me?

OCtoolguy Posted March 21, 2018 Report Posted March 21, 2018 Well Kevin, once you tire of scrolling, you can always open a scroll saw wood supply like Ocooche's. It sounds like you have plenty to spare. Just out of curiosity, where did you get it all? Ray Quote

The muscles in my right foot were hurting so bad if any weight was on .Now days later i can walk again! and i have 99% more to organize????I don't know if i should or shouldn't?No pictures yet but maybe tommorow. meflick 1 Quote
