With a Bluegrass and Fiddle Contest last Sunday and a Bluegrass Festival today (not to mention the work that Kim has had to do on the gardens) it's been a slow couple weeks but Kim and I got most of the walls are sheathed.
Went with mainly OSB and a few areas of pegboard. Furred (sp?) out the peg board walls with 3/4" furring strips and to keep the OSB even I cut 1 1/2" strips of OSB and furred out the studs that were getting covered with OSB.
Am debating whether or not to paint the OSB. A good portion of the upper walls will be covered with cabinets and the wall adjacent to the left of the door will eventually have several base cabinets to support a 16' piece of corian countertop I salvaged from a job (that will be a divided into "stations" for the scroll saw, a sharpening area, and a carving area for Kim) so there won't be a whole lot of exposed wall.
The lathe will go to the left of the counter top area
The bench - with some modification - the right of the door will be for the 12"CMS and RAS (although I'm leaning more and more towards selling them both and purchasing a 12" SCMS)
The wall that closes in the right side of the stairs will be used for lumber storage.
To the left of the stairs we made a small 6' X 8' room. Am either going to move my office downstairs or more likely use that area for finishing.
The visible lolly column is coming out and our table saw, jointer and planer will share that area. (Edit: Guess you'll have to look at one of my previous posts for the lolly column).
BS, shaper, belt/spindle sander, and DP are all on mobile bases and will be stored just past the lumber rack.
Haven't quite figured out dust collection yet (we have a 2hp SECO). Need to get some better bags and then consult with you all about running duct work.
Will post pictures as everything comes together.
Over the course of the upcoming week we need to sheath the office/finishing area, install the pocketless door at the bottom of the stairs as well as a few other doors, rough in a half dozen 220 lines and a dozen 110, and run some lags through the LVLs so we can remove the lolly column.
We appreciate your taking the time to check out our progress and welcome any comment and feedback.
In peace, Todd & Kim
