Adventures in Woodturning: New Tool Rack (And the death spiral associated with this hobby).

It’s sort of a never ending series…

• I like woodturning
• I should get a lathe
• I’ll need a place to put it – okay, build a workshop
• Got the workshop, need power.
• Got power, need the lathe. Hi Craigslist!
• Also need tools
• Gosh it’s dark in here, need lights
• Look at all the sawdust! Need a shop vac.
• Dayam, my tools are dull, need a grinder
• Grinder is okay, but a jig for the tools on the grinder is helpful
• Could use a better chuck for the lathe
• Hmm, time to start finishing – need sandpaper.
• And polyurethane
• and stains
• and brushes and clothes for them.
• My garbage can needs to be larger
• Where the heck can I get more wood?

It sorta goes on and on. But, there’s also the point where you can build your own stuff. I can’t make my own tools, but I can build lighting and a new tool rack!

Scraps around the shop put it all together – it was a nice Saturday afternoon project.

Need more wood…
