Members MoRoadglide11 Posted January 27, 2018 Members Report Posted January 27, 2018 Hey Guys!, Ok...so here's where it all happens. This is one of my spare bedrooms. I would use my garage but, Truck and Harley would get in the way and besides...I do metal fabrication in there due to having another hobby (I play with 1 1/2" scale trains so I build train cars occasionally). I like using this bedroom as a leather shop primarily because it's an all weather shop...heated and cooled to my liking...and it's not a long walk to the kitchen or the shower. I'm single and live alone so it suits my perfectly. Basically...my entire house is a "Man Cave" and my entire property is "Man Land". What more could I ask for? Quote

Nice setup I almost bought one of those work tables last week, I know what you mean about having more then one hobby. It seems the older I get the more expensive my hobbies get, photography equipment, high end audio equipment, drones. I would have to say the only one that can't make me any money is the audio, spending $1500 on a pair of custom earbuds is a little crazy. At least leather working and photography I can recoup some money. Quote

Members MoRoadglide11 Posted January 28, 2018 Members Report Posted January 28, 2018 Hey Guys!!, Yeah!!....I have a pretty good set up...an indoor shop and a garage shop. Both make a little money now and then. As for a shooting range off the back deck....HELL YES! I sit on 10 acres with so many oaks that I can't see my neighbors. The Lowe's work stations are great...storage drawers and some storage above the bench. I like them a lot...you can't go wrong. Oh...and I've beat on mine while setting my maker's mark with a dead blow hammer...so far no splintered table tops. The boots you see are my current inventory of holster making material. The sewing machine is a TechSew 5100...great machine...no problems. The scroll saw that you can barely see is what I use to cut out my patterns out of clear lexan. I spend a lot of time here during cold temps..then out in my garage during the warmer temps. The photo below is what I do in my indoor shop. Quote

That is a cool idea Mo. Nice craftsmanship. Quote He attacked everything in life with a mix of extraordinary genius and naive incompetence, and it was often difficult to tell which was which.

They are ciems I called them earbuds since not many people have heard of them, thew are the ear pieces you see singers use on stage. Audiophiles and people that are into high end equipment love them since they reproduce every frequency very precise, I am happy to say I own 4 different pairs of them. Here is a link go buy a pair but don't use your phone to play them buy a $3000 lossless mp3 player LOL. https://www.jhaudio.com/p/layla-custom To get a pair you need to have the inside of your ear molded because they are custom fit to your ear canal. Sorry for all the audio talk I get excited about it I am on an audiophile forum when not on this one. Quote
alpha2 Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 Ah, yes, now I get the idea. Vast quantities. Quote So much leather...so little time.
