Leather shop ...

[Oxbo]

Hi guys ............. Recall awhile back I joined the forum and mentioned that I was giving all my leatherworking

stuff to my son and his boys. And we were going to make a leather shop .... Well here's a few pics of where

we started and where we are now .... Only problem is ..... They're lovin it but don't seem to have time to start

making stuff (they have made a couple of things but,..... could certainly be doing a lot more). I want those grand

kids (11yrs and 9yrs) to really learn this stuff so they can make spending money etc. Have applied for trademark for the company,

if they ever get it going etc ....

Have a nice day ...

That is very nice. Those boys are fortunate to have you as a Father and Grandfather.

8 1/2 months, not too long I guess, them boys had a birthday so am off a little on how

old they are ..... Had to work in bulding a chicken coop also = Son bought a bunch of biddies

and we had no coop, so ......... Got one now...... but still got to make the yard for em, they just

roam around free range now ..... The other end of the shop is for vehicle repair etc, etc .......

And .. got us a little coffin welder  and welding table back there etc ...

It's a coming ..............................

@Oxbo at that age kids are very busy with school and other activities, sometimes it takes a while for them the realize what it is they want to do.  Its a great looking shop and logo.

Hmmmmmmm...... Never thought about that = don't recall ever kickin the doors........

My son surprised me with hanging the logo on the bench, will have to move it up a bit .....

That logo was drawn for me 34 years ago by a good friend = he only charged me $10.00 .....

Had it framed awhile back = the original artwork .. Have had it rolled up in the top drawer of

my desk all these years .....

Notice it says "inc" ... Had to change that to LLC ....

another difference in lingo: a door-kick panel on a door is a re-enforced panel so's ya can kick a door closed, an inset panel under a cupboard door so's ya don't keep kicking it with your toes is a plinth panel

HI. I'd almost be willing to give up my Pearson No.6 for a shop like that.  Beautiful, room to move around and set up a shop like it should be, not a cubby hole like many of us have where you have to leave the room to change your mind.   Very nice set-up.
