Lathe tools rackOver the past month, my shop had gotten even more chaotic than usual. I've had jury duty, and when I did get some shop-time, I wasn't taking the time to clean up afterwards.During my turning spree this spring and early summer, I had acquired a lot of lathe tools I didn't have any place for. So when I did finally get a little time, I decided to build a rack to hold them. A chunk of 1×12, a piece of 1×8, and a bunch of 1×4 pieces, some glue and some screws, and it's done.Holes in top of is are thanks to my new forstner bits and a little bit of chisel work for the really big scraper (a 40mm wide round) and I now have a nice home for the new lathe tools and a bit of expansion room, even. And then I added a new chunk of cleat to the wall to hold the tools at a better level for reaching when I'm working at the lathe.

Patio table

Patio tableMy wife noticed a few left over large format floor tiles and came up with an idea for a new patio table. The tiles are placed in position and not glued down in any way. The reason for this is so we can remove them for the off season and we will store the wooden table frame out of the way. We put wheels on the bottom of the 4X4 posts so we could move it around the patio. Wooden frame has been painted. The tiles are 3/8' thick so the table ribs are set with that in mind.
