My new workplace

[natkova]

I was before in smaller room so I moved to the other one previous were 3 meters by 3 meters , it will be like 10 foot by 10 if Iam right with my math

Now it's bigger room , same building .

It is 3x5 meters , i mean. 10 foot and 16'5 roughly speaking.

I bought some tools for it.

Bought myself chopsaw ,I saw (no joke intended) that I need it to cut better and faster metal, and more precise .

So here are photos.

I painted my drill press, made metal stand for ti, previously it was on bench.

Made some cabinet for bench too.

Made space for windows, and build frame for it.

And hanged bellows under ceiling , i don't use them , but i can't dump them either , so i mounted them heigh , maybe too heigh , too chamber hut boards a bit ,but it can be opened.

Bought some tools chest that can be unfolded (great for tool storage , and space saver).

Knock the rust off and oil the post on your drill.  Use BLO on the anvil.  They will be better protected that way.

Make a deflector for the sparks from the chop saw.  You do not want to have the sparks start a fire.

Well here is new workbench old wooden were out of shape but it could stand more years , it was s only 13 years old .

I might add some drawers cabinet under it.

 

 

What is BLO ?

BLO is Boiled Linseed Oil, looks like your new work bench will be good, nothing like a steel frame.

Thanks I will see if I will paint it or leave it like this, I kinda like this color

[natkova]

So here it is all finished up, I didn't wanted to paint wood so it can have some difference , but I will see will I will change my mind

[natkova]

Will have to figure out what to do with bellows .

Shelf added to bench and some cabinet

Starting to get there. 

Haven't we been trying to figure out where to put your bellows for at least a year now? 

How does it look where it is or have you removed it? Let's get a look at the available space, etc. I LOVE brainstorming things like this. Your bellows is like the blacksmith shop perennial flower. Every time we think the blooming thing is finished it comes up again.

To be honest i dont use bellows like for years iam nostalgic to move them to attic , i just hang them there, i use electric blower but yeah they take a lots of space.

I put them in "case " there will be lost off electricity, or my electric blower will die, but to be honest i just like to look on them, and  iam kinda nostalgic from where i repaired them back in 2020.

They are hanging here  

taking some space but i lie myself that because they are up heigh they dotn take space.

There's nothing wrong with hanging tools or equipment to decorate your shop, it's a fine old tradition in fact. You might still get some use out of it though if you aim the nozzle near the top of the door and rig a way to give it a pump. That way if a bill collector or salesman knocks you can blow his hat off into a bucket of ashes! Hmmm?

[natkova]

Well I do this for hobby so I doubt that bill collector will come .

[Frosty]

Well, that's no fun Nat, I'll make some calls and see if a Magistrate or some other stuffy official type will drop by so you can have a little fun.
