Now it really looks like a shop
I found out my home made air cleaner works good, the 20x20 filter was slam full of sawdust had to blow it out today, think I need a better dust collection system

Earl, it is definitely looking more worked in. Good on ya! All you need is another foot or two of sawdust under the lathe and you'll have her broken in.

Great looking shop! Its come a long way in a short time.

Another good method of dust clearing is having some friends over for a Sneezing Party.

Just cover your tools to prevent uhm, rust.

I see shavings on the floor, which is always a good sign, Earl.

Earl,

What kind of heater is that hanging on your wall? Propane? Where did you get it?

Hey Earl,

Its looking Good... Lots of Diamond segments I see and some more "Collectors Bowls" (aka Throw away bowls) . NICE~!


So what's that green thing hanging in the second picture?


Also I second what Scott & Tony said. I know a guy that got a chicken farm exhaust fan and cut a hole in his building and installed it, it worked like a charm.


And I hope all the scrap 2x4 material I gave you is helping out.

Earl that's nice man BTW my dust collection system is the floor and it's pretty deep in there right now. I would say about 6 inches by some machines. Your home made air cleaner is a big step up from my broom and shovel.
