I was just thinking back to a post by bearfetworks, he said, one day he was scrolling out in his driveway when his new neighbors came strolling by, well by looking at the picture of his beautiful home they had quite a stroll to get up his driveway...
Thanks again for sharing your shops with us..

I can see I was terribly unclear - that beautiful house with the detached shop is ours - just in a different state and currently leased out. We will be moving there next May!

Some good looking workshops there, sure wish I had one I could actually call a workshop, but I get my sawing done anyway.
Kerrie, it looks like you have tidied your workshop up a bit since I was there on the weekend LOL .. I will have to mess it up a bit more when I am back in a few weeks.Brett
Only Robinson Crusoe could get everything done by Friday!!

This is a great thread, I think I'll take some pictures of my shop and post them. It's a small shop, but it is my little corner of heaven. I even have a lock on the inside to keep out the interruptions.
I'd like to say though some of you are pretty busy scrollers judging by the condition of some of these shops. Keep up the good work, a messy shop is a busy shop.

Whoops - I guess this hasn't crossed the Atlantic successfully.
Jelly babies are a very sweet, sticky, fruit flavoured confection shaped to look vaguely like babies. For some reason, people tend to bite the heads off first!
There's an online shop that sells them here. Perhaps I'd be right in thinking that the closest equivalent in America is jelly beans? If so, I've tried them and found that jelly babies are much softer to bite into. Both are yummy, though.

Marsha... this is just a thought for your consideration. Once your locked in your safe heaven, should something go wrong (God forbid), does anyone have a key to get in there, and is there anyone that will do a regular check on you . Being locked away from the distractions is fine, but remember, accidents do happen, and there needs to be someone that can access you in the event you need it. We need you around here for a while, I just dont want anything bad to happen. DaleDale w/ yella saws

Here are a few pics of my shop:
Evie, I quess it's not as messy as some, but believe me I've seen it alot worse then this.
Dale, thanks for your concern, but I only lock the door at night when it's starting to get dark and I'm not done scrolling. I never lock the door when I'm using scary tools(table saw, chop saw or router) when I'm using these tools I invite hubby out for a visit(help)
Thanks for looking, and Trout Thanks for starting this thread

PS...looks like you and trout both get the good housekeeping award! Congrats!
I love the Bandsaw. I use a Timberwolf 3 T.P.I. blade and I've resawn up to 11" wide Brazilian Cherry on it. It was a little slow going but it got 'er done. I have the riser on it and regularly resaw 8 - 10" oak without problems.
As far as the good housekeeping award, hehehe. You should've seen it last week.Kevin

Marsha's shop is immaculate (check in the mail for the word, Gill) but Jedi, Jedi, Jedi...... Cleaning your shop before pictures is a violation of the Moderator TOS. You will need to hand over your admin powers to me and lucky788 for one week as penalty. Oh yeah, we need you bank account numbers to......"Orphans are easier to ignore before you know their names.

by John SmithTo answer your question about the saw that I have:
my first one was the 12" Craftsman from the late '70s. (put a LOT of miles on that one).
Sold that one in 2000 when I closed the shop.
then, in 2004, I got a 10" Delta Table Top just for hobby work. (I used...Yesterday, 05:24 PM -

by John SmithI've used 1/4 and 1/8" blades from different sources with good results. I use carbon fiber blade blocks so I can put the blade in the middle of the blocks. You have to "tune" the blade for your specific saw. Several videos on YouTube on how to tune band saw blades.

by Quartz43Very interesting and well done projects. I have not tried a 1/8" blade but think I will. Can you tell us the brand of blade, tooth count and what bandsaw you are using. Sorry to be asking so many questions but you have the knowledge. Also, any tips for using that small of a blade.
