Managed to stay quite busy this week, mainly to keep warm.
First, off to the lumber yard to replenish the stack I finished off this week.
8/4 hard maple, 8/4 cherry, 8/4 walnut and some 8/4 mahogany, not shown.
Then off to the local tool store.
I've wanted a new drill press for a while now and decided on the Delta because of the increased spindle travel and the laser. I wanted the PowerMatic so I could stop changing belts but the price threw me off. But I like the Delta. Seems to be solid and extremely heavy.
I still managed to get some work done.
I cut out and glued 45 boards this week. (For those with sharp eyes, all 45 aren't here. My table simple wasn't large enough.) They will be loaded up and sent to the other shop I work with for sanding on their wide belt sander. (Not shown, a cherry and walnut 2 x 30 x 42 board and a 2 x 20 x 33 mahogany board.)
By Friday they will all be sent to UPS for delivery to my customers.
