Mike, great photos, and I love all the outlets. You may have the only shop in the world without an extension cord.

I scored some pre black friday items thanks to some forum members heads up. A couple clearanced roboreel air ceiling mounts (in the background of pic) and I convinced HF to honor the 20% off super coupon today on the 56" top box - boy they sure did not want to but they had agreed before I drove 40 miles to come get it). I also scored some of the Bosch 23ga pinners at Menards on clearance and already sold one that paid for mine.
Glad its my shop I am responsible for - I only have to make me happy.

There are a lot of those Bosch pin nailers around here. If I didn't already have a pin nailer, I might get one.
Once Favre hangs it up though, it years of cellar dwelling for the Pack. (Geoff 12-18-07)

A few updates.
Got the north wall electrical panels done. A 3ph and a 1ph.
Started the insulation.
Also got another 45X5 class CNC Router machine from a buddy - its on crazy Zambus Casters that are about 4" in Dia. I am getting it un-moth balled and reassembled. It has a 5'X5'X8"Z cutting area. Its all 8020 and steel. It will use a G540 controller and Mach and will use a Hitachi M12VC for now. The gantry uses the 3060 extrusion - Its a beast of a piece of 8020 for sure. The carriages use the bearings from the non-pro cncrp design. I also got a Jet Canister DC to use with it that is also on wheels. Also will use a Kent CNCDust Shoe.
Glad its my shop I am responsible for - I only have to make me happy.

This looks a bit more like a CNC router - Gantry and X carriage mounted.

These 8020 anchors are amazing. You cant budge the legs now. I am adding another bace or two but really to hold the cables and teh PC and make it fully self contained like my first machine is.
