I'm just glad y'all like it.
I hope it helps/inspires you guys to build or try more.
I guess I enjoy the challenge.
Always pushing my comfort zone and improving my skills.
Today was a "learning day"🤬 but I learned a lot.

Thanks Rick.
Yes, lots of details.
Funny, I was thinking about Chuck's broom after seeing the clean comments. Toying with how I want to make them...

New knee is pretty good. Up to doing most of my chores.  Waiting on the Dr. to get his shmight together.

Thanks for asking

Thanks guys!
I finished the first machine (planer) February 25th 2012.
This has been a dream a long time.
I have lots of little details to build (fun stuff).
The floor is dirty but nor very. 🤣
I hope y'all will look in as I continue in my 1:16 adventure.

I have a couple of Darius Kinsey's books
All of the old Gazettes and all of the timber times.
Quite a few hard books too.

I wonder what will happen to them when I go...
Pretty sure recycling.

Thanks guys!
Working on the shop lights.
If the belts, shifters and light wiring doesn't send me to the loony bin I should be good.

Worked on the turntable.
Wall is carved foam (the pink stuff 1" thick)
I cut it down to 1.5" tall and 3/8" thick.
