    An Early Christmas Present

    Some of you might remember seeing the Millers Falls No 2 I restored earlier this year and the picture I took of the exploded view. My wife surprised me last night and had it made into a poster for my shop. I'm a lucky guy

    Nice poster. But that snap on tool chest is even nicer!

    Way cool! She could likely make a little income selling prints.

    What shop? Way too clean to be a shop. Maybe an office. But, that is a way cool picture.

    Thanks, I just got it. Says something about Husky's quality if you think it's a SnapOn! The top can actually be raised. I'm going to put a Moxon vise on it and use it as an adjustable height joinery bench. My regular bench is on the opposite wall

    Thanks Jim! I've actually had a ton of requests for it and I think I'm going to look into selling it digitally

    I keep all the machines in the garage (which is a complete disaster right now) and this is just my space for my neander activities. My woodworking bench is on the opposite wall

    Not sure how you noticed that tool chest. Between the present from his wife and what looks like a vintage 27-drawer storage cabinet I just saw something black in the pic.

    Congrats Steven. You got a very nice Xmas gift and it seems you got a keeper in that wife of yours.

    I was going to say: Great wife, great poster, but if that is your shop you are a sick puppy. Be a snowbird and come to Tucson (bring a spare poster with you) and I'll show you a shop. Of course if you want to show me your organization talents on my shop I'll be happy to learn.

    I didn't click the full sized picture. Home Depot is getting pretty clever!

    Nice! Someone could probably make a living selling exploded view posters of tools, car motors, and all sorts of things.
