A couple of shop-made items make life a lot easier. One is a made-from-scrap-lumber "Hardware Cabinet.'" This cabinet has proven to be terrific for storing hardware and then being able to l'ind it when I need it (see page 56). The second thing is my clamp storage, which utilizes my 9-l"oot ceiling and saves a lot of space on my shop floor. I also use the ceiling to house my air compressor retractable hose. WWMMMMmiMMI Finally, for finishing my projects, 1 recently purchased a painter's pad (as noted in several past intarsia articles in this publication). 1 use it in conjunction with an air brush—even though I am no George Ahlers when it comes to air brush finishing. Note tine sculptor's table used for a variety of applications in my shop. Oh, and by the way, all the battleship gray paint was on sale at the local hardware store and it reminds me of my days in the submarine service. Well. I hope 1 may have given you some ideas that can be of help, but I think I am getting a whiff of that seafood gumbo on the stove. Remember, it doesn't have to be fancy or expensive... it only has to work. Happy woodworking! Editor's Note: The hardware cabinet shown in this article is so useful and well designed that we've asked Larry to show us how he made it. Go to page 56 for those plans and photos. m&mi teUm mi IlgfptH yflHi Sill ■ |
