We have been in California, the new house, and new shop for 10 months. Progress has been slow. We have a Toddler and I have a Jobby-Job. I have been organizing, throwing away, moving, and rationalizing tools and supplies in the garage (woodshop) and the machine shop/forge a bit more lately. I am still not there, but I am working at it.

It has been hard not having a shop that could be worked in. I have so many things that I bot want and need to do. I have replaced forging and cabinet making with a little machining, some baking, and lots of photography, but I long for a shop that I can make sparks fly in.

Hammers and tongs are all clean and waxed and up near the power hammer. Tool boards in garage and shop are installed and MOSTLY populated. Still looking for a few tools that are scattered about in still unopened boxes.

C-Clamps and jigs are up in the welding/fabrication area. The 2″X72″ grinder belts are finally up and out of the storage drawer, and ready to use.

Again, coming along slowly, but it is happening.
