Lathe area workshop rearrangement project

Progress is being made on the lathe area woodshop rearrangement project. Three lathe booths for the Jet lathes are finished. They were made with 2x4’s and scrap green birds eye maple paneling that was donated to DMS. A fourth jet lathe booth will be built once the fourth Jet lathe is working and has a stand.

Once electricity is dropped from the ceiling, we will rearrange the lathe area of the shop per the previously published plan Woodshop re arrangement

The booths will keep chips and chunks from the Multicam and provide shelf space for holding tools and materials.

I’ll bet we are the only lathe workshop in the world with green birds eye maple paneling!

Classy! But does that mean you’ll have to hold a pinky in the air while turning?

This is going in the current woodshop? I haven’t been up there much lately but seems like a tight fit.
