Re: Beware of flying pigs!
I figured if I cleaned off all the dust ya'll would comment on the saw being too clean! The box fan on the chair beside the saw will have a new filter today. That does a remarkable job as far as catching the dust. I'm also going to rig up something to catch what falls to the floor (not much gets there). The blower on the Hegner blows toward the sawyer and cannot be re-directed. That means my shirt gets dusty. I'll just scoot into the car port and dust myself off. I also have face mask filters. I'll have a shop vac for cleanups.
I think Samantha (the dog in the picture) was either thinking: "Oh good, we don't have to hang out in the shop unless dad is out there", and/or where'd she put my food and water?"  It is safely away from the saw and it's dust, and she found it a little later yesterday.

Re: Beware of flying pigs!
Alright then!!
Always amazes me how things aren't what they appear, and how people react in ways other than we are "sure" they will...
LOML considered having me bring her saw up into the house as she still isn't 'shop ready' yet. Naturally I said if you want it, it will take nothing but a little time and a little effort. She reconsidered for now~ wonder if I was too eager?? I didn't even get a chance to slip the lathe in 
Enjoy and take comfort in your new 'shop'. |

Re: Beware of flying pigs!
I bought a new filter for the fan. Hopefully by this evening I will actually get to start scrolling!

Re: Beware of flying pigs!
Looks like a cool and COMFORTABLE new setup you've got going there! My roommate is pretty cool, but I have a feeling that sparks would fly if a saw appeared on the kitchen table. Good for you!!!

Congrats on year-round scrolling

Re: Beware of flying pigs!
Pardon my ignorance, but wouldn't a saw in the house at an ungodly hour wake people? Is the scrollsaw that quiet or does LOYL sleep like a log?
Congrats on the new setup in any event!
Will

Re: Beware of flying pigs!
They used to say "beware of running out of month before you run out of money", but now you've created a new adage "beware of running out of house before you run out of shop space"! It must be nice to know the "shop is where I want it to be"! Enjoy!

Could be. But having the saw, and eventually the lathe in the house have been my goal for quite awhile. If we can put off expanding the shop - great. Meanwhile, we don't have to try to keep the shop as cool this summer.
Will, the saw is extremely quiet. More importantly, it is at the exact opposite end of the house than the bedroom. Add that to the fact then when he is home he sleeps like a rock. And let's not forget, he is out of town all week.
The saw is not actually on the table, but beside the desk. That part of the house is the kitchen which runs into the dining room which runs into the room in which we set up the saw.

Re: Beware of flying pigs!
A shop with a home built into it!! I love it!! Talk about a WW dream home!!
Just add All House DC, 220v in every room, Work station specific can lighting,... Just think of the possibilities.
Of course I guess it helps if the spouse is likewise 'flicted with WGD. But then it gets to "Honey, I think the lathe tools should go on this wall and the saws over on that wall, and I really don't like the drill press in the kids room," etc.
Nah, nevermind...
Just kiddin' Cathy. I think its great and am envious (can you tell?)
Go
