Well. it's been 5 years since we built the shop and SWMBO says it's time to clean it up. She doesn't mean just vacuum the open areas, she means CLEAN!! So guess what I am gonna be doing this week. You got it! I have decided to clean the shop. I'll try to post a pic when done since it may be another 5 years before it gets it again. I'll have to say I sure do hate to stop carving every 4 or 5 years to do this but you know how spic and span these women want us to be. Doug |

Poor Doug But, you will feel so much better when it's done. You'll be rearing to mess it up again

Yeah, I told her I'd just mess it up again but she thinks dust 1 to 1 and 1/2 inches deep is too much. She thinks I actually ought to be able to see the floor. You know how women are.

Doug! Just think how fortunate you are to have a shop to mess up! Having the wrath come down on you once every five years is nothing! It comes down on me everytime I carve .... but then I'm carving in the den, not a shop!

You're right! That's "SHOP" talk!

Terry, Terry, Terry! How dirty can a shop get in 5 years, indeed. I can trash my shop in one day. My shop is so messy.....in fact you ought to see some of the excuses that I have come up with to keep from even considering starting to clean it. The latest excuse was to move my scheduled colonoscopy up two months....But I got even better excuses that are just waiting to get used......Tom H

How about loaning me some of them? Maybe I can stretch this thing out to every ten years. Doug |

One of my friends cleans his shop out every couple weeks during the summer...he just opens up the garage doors, fires up his leaf blower, and lets go! Bob |
