It's a color chart, with the actual thread... I know it looks like some cut-offs from some ancient Asian's beard, (think Pai Mei, from Kill Bill), but it's not. Now I really don't want one, but do I need one? I'm an addict. LOL!

Members battlemunky Posted January 13, 2018 Members Report Posted January 13, 2018 Ok, here is my shop/s. Drying rack, airbrushing station, dying station, sanding station. All out in the shop. My box jig and bench with all my tools, thread, stamps, leather, stamping granite, cutting board. Pile o'fleece. And I neglected to take a picture of the couch where I sit and make gravy. I've sewn 4 out of 6 days and I haven't been working on anything but my sewing. I don't know if my sewing is improving but I am certainly learning a lot about technique and awl holding, etc. Quote

I was right. bicycle? respirator on a bungee? rainbow Swiffer? I like your tooling rack, thread lamp, and is that a knife block with skiving knives? Yes to all. Those tooling racks are actually some of the meanest cardboard I've ever seen...packing parts for some bowflex equipment. The stuff is hard as wood so I drilled holes in it and drop stamps in them. Works ok but a temporary solution until I get off my butt and make a proper stamp rack. We go a new set of knives after 22 years so I repurposed the old block. I have an Old Hickory in there I'm going to reprofile and rehandle but that is totally for leather sharps. The bikes are just out of the way in the shed. The respirator is also out of the way there bu still handy when I fire up the airbrush. The rainbow swiffer....it was there when we moved in and I haven't touched it since. Guess I could toss it and use the nail to hang something. The drying racks are usually for leather but I have some cloth I dyed using leather dye ( black and red) that I'm going to make some knife handles out of. I should've tidied up..... I love this thread too @Rolandranch. 'Twas a great idea @Mjolnir. Quote
Members billybopp Posted January 13, 2018 Members Report Posted January 13, 2018 Battlemunkys shed looks nicer than some apartments I've lived in. Probably bigger, and better smelling too...especially with leather there. - Bill Quote
