Frosty Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 You are SUCH a tease! Frosty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinbender Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Me too Junker, My daughter-in-law is a professional photographer and was going to teach me but she has that only the best gene. Not trying to impress anyone just want to take a few pictures and not break the bank doing it. I think a trip to Best Buy and a talk with the Geek Squad might fix me up. Good Luck...Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junker Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 so i got the pics of my workspace and anvil... the workspace is essentially a shack.... and the anvil is a 3/4in. I-beam stood on end with 2 pieces of 1in. plate steel forge welded together with an O/A torch and a hammer and them welded on top of the I-beam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bentiron1946 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 That one dog is looking at it like "Man I ain't walking under that!". Hey its better then I have at the moment.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junker Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 lol, wells then the dog is smarter than me... trust me... i built the thing. first good wind and the roofs probably gonna fly away :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 If you put a couple diagonals between the posts and roof beams it'll stiffen it up quite a bit. It's better than I had for a lot of years. I like the helpers too, I think the one is convinced you put a ball up there. Frosty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junker Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 that would be my little spaz, roxy... im 6'2" and the shack is about an inch taller than i am... you missed the pic with her standing on top of it... darn little dog can jump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheftjcook Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Looking Good Junker...But I think Roxy is looking to give up the dog house and adopt your shop as a new open air condo. Like Frosty said Some cross braces will go a long way to tighten it up. Good Luck Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reid Neilsen Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Do you ever feel like you are on "Gilligan's Island" or "Survivor" when you work under that thing? (just kidding) - Cool beans man - great start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
