A Motherlode!!!

[Squeakyboatcaptain]

Quint (Crappiejgr) asked me to pour him up some more teardrop heads, unfortunately he asked me on the day I was leaving to come to work...So I won't be able to pour them until I get back home. In the meantime he sent a load of goodies to my house for trade.... I poured a mess of them up for him last year, and it was the same thing...lots of goodies!






I've got you covered Quint.... You'll be seeing some extra goodies in the mail, as soon as I get home! 2 weeks from tomorrow!
There are a bunch of great folks on this site...You can't deny that! Not only have I learned a bunch, I have made some pretty good friends!
Thanks Quint!!

[CrappieHappy]

Boy.... I am going to have to do some organizing on my workbench.... shelves, containers, lights.... Time to make it look professional! LOL
I'm thinking of splitting it half... one side for pouring and one side for tying/painting. It is a 4' x 8' table.... If I put a divider down the middle with pegboard about 3' or 4' high... I can hang stuff and bulid some shelves to hold some nice containers and seperate all my materials and paints. It has gotten a little dis-organized over the last year and has become a catch-all for everything as I walk into my shop....Hmmmm the wheels are spinnin now!

 

[Fatman]

Some of those fluid bed cups look appealing!! Lol

 

[Fatman]

Actually have to re-glue one of my fluid beds!! The top cup got stuck and trying to get it apart the bottom came loose. Just have to reglue the base and put a new piece of mesh in the cup and let it cure up. I have two other small 2" beds and two 3" beds so no down time when I need them!!!

Here's a thread on what folks have for work spaces!!! Take notice of Papaperch, Stumps and JungleJims!!!!!!! DROOOOLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!LOL http://www.jigcraft.com/jigcraft/showthread.php?tid=4811&highlight=workspace
