Moving day

Posting has been thin lately primarily due to how difficult it has been to work on the tables. After the rains set in, the stuff from the back yard moved in to the garage and my workspace became extremely crowded. Here is a picture of how it has been.

 Note the workbench itself, imagine trying to spread out your documentation, soldering, boards and parts. Part of that is an excuse, as I need to get better organized.

Originally the plan was to keep the tables in the garage, then during summer parties we would have the pingpong table and the pinball tables set up and it would make for some fun gettogethers.  But I started thinking about moving the tables inside. Out in the unheated garage during the snowy winter did not sound like a good idea, either for the tables or for my working on them.

In the end, I moved them up to the bonus room over the garage. Warm, lots of space and a much more pleasant environment. There are a couple of things I am worried about though...









With carpeting, I am a little nervous that I will get oil or black dust or something that will ruin the carpet. With it being inside the house, not sure that smelly things such as soldering will be well received by my wife. I may have to put a exhaust fan on the window or something.

But for now, it is almost ready and I can get back to working on them!
