Title: New Workplace
Post by: gfugal on October 21, 2018, 10:41:59 am

Well, this summer has been crazy. I started Grad school, and have moved twice. Needless to say, I haven't had a lot of time to work on bows. Life is starting to calm down just a bit, and hopefully, I can squeeze in some bow working, especially since I just finished a new workspace. I built a new tillering board. Originally I was going to use it on the floor, by stepping on it to hold it down (that's why the pully is so high). But now I have a place to mount it, and it makes it a bit easier. I didn't have a workbench, nor did I have the room or money to get or even make one. So Instead I built a work shelf. It's made of one 12 foot 2x4 which cost me about $6. I don't know why I didn't think about doing this sooner. I anchored it to the studs and mounted a vice I got recently which will also help a lot. having to secure everything with clamps was getting old. Plus having this space will reduce the time I have to clean up, and move things in and back out of the house. I'm pretty excited.

Nice, it always helps to get a decent work set up, especially when space is limited. :)
