I find every bit as much satisfaction in organizing as I do in acquiring and using the tools. Excellent shelf unit - the best kind - made from Onhandium. 👍👍😁
Hi Stuart, I was storing that bed frame for one of my kids. They said it was surplus and I was going to take it to the tip. Then my wife said "You are not taking that to the tip are you????" - well no of course not I said. I was just conflicted - save space vs make use, caught in a process loop in my brain. Cheers
Hiya Paul Good to hear that you appreciate the input on the gloves. My wife found them for me and clued me in to their superiority :) It amuses me that it was wour wife, in turn, who discovered my recommendation and passed the clue to you :) By our (spouse's) power combined, we shal conquer the world (of reusable disposable gloves). /G edit: And you are welcome for the timber on behalf of my nation - greetings from Danmark :)
Hiya, she says she watches all my videos but then when I test her she clearly hasn't. But when your comment came in she spotted it quite quickly. It was probably because it said 'gloves'. If it had said 'shoes' she'd have she'd have been ordering them for herself. It seems a woman can never have too many shoes. 🤣🤣 Cheers
Always very satisfying to make something useful from "scrap." It reminds me of the time my wife was complaining that I had too many tools and should get rid of some. My brother in law came to my rescue. "No such thing as too many tools. Just not enough storage."
Housekeeping jobs are not the most exciting, but for me they are somehow still quite satisfying. I had some leftover shelving I made use of recently in my shop. To be honest, I was just trying to find a place to put the stuff so it might maybe be useful. Turns out it was a great thing - all my lathe tooling is now within easy reach as well as lubricants, etc. Thanks for sharing even the little things, Paul - I certainly enjoy watching.
Hi Russell, I think the difficult thing is giving the housekeeping jobs any priority. Making things better for tomorrow at the expense of today takes some discipline. But the untidiness is no longer nagging me. Cheers
Very practical project. I did notice that there should have been a bag at the back of your mitre saw to collect the sawdust. This saves you breathing in all the dust.
Hi Paul. I have been putting off adding much needed shelves to my workshop for far too long. I suspect your timely video will spur me into action. Nice result. 👏👏👍😀
I asked my step mothers brothers wife how she calĺed it, being born there of English colonial parents, and she said the same way you do. As for house keeping, i went the other way and rather than tidy i dont go in the garage anymore! Its been a couple of months and do you ,i dont miss it all and especially not digging metal splinters out of my fingers.
Hi Chris, tidying can be stressful. Sometimes best left. Very interesting to hear about your relation and Keenya / Kinya. I did a bit of reading on it and I think the 'i' sound may be from from Bantu or Swahili (i.e. the people who live there). Many years ago one could meet people who had worked in India and East Africa. Setting aside the rights and wrongs of it all, colonial life I mean, the fact is people were possibly much broader and more worldly. Now we only know from TH-cam and that's not the same as living there. Cheers
Very good. Lidl Parkside battery drill? I have one too, had it five years. Never misses a beat. As good as one I'd have paid twice as much for. I thought you could maybe put wooden dowels in the shelves so you can place the vice etc over them to stop them falling off. Not that they could. That line of thinking comes from years spent on ships.
Hi Carl, that one is a Bosch drill which I've had for 8 or 10 years maybe. Done a lot of work with it but still on the first battery which holds its charge great. I'd only holding need pegs in an earthquake zone and to honest the building would fall before the shelf. People rave about old character buildings but the bricks are soft and full of rubbish, and the lime mortar is not much better than paste. If it's dry it crumbles and if it is wet it slides. But that's why old houses don't usually crack - bricks on a lime mortar bed just slide over the ones below as the walls bend and bow with time. Cheers
IMHO, all lathe and milling machine tools and accessories should be kept in mobile cabinets, which protects them from chips and dust. Heaviest items at the bottom, lightest at the top, all on pull-out sliding shelves. Frequently used, heavy accessories like mill vices can be kept on top towards the back for balance.Another mobile cabinet holds wrenches, hammers, files and another cabinet holds all bolts, screws and associated tools. In this way, the floor can be kept meticulously clean. I also have a benchtop cabinet for measuring, drawing and scribing tools. All benches are mobile as are mech. hacksaws, bandsaws and shapers. Lathe and milling machine are on plinths of large concrete pavers. Mobility is everything!
I agree mobile cabinets would be ideal mfs. Vices on a shelf like that are not ideal and I know I will have problems with flash rust unless covered. Cheers
Hi Paul, Good bit of house keeping looks just right, well done. No idea how to pronounce Kenia, sorry!! pronounciation is always a real minefield!! Have a great weekend!!
Hi David, I'm going to claim that 'Keenya' is closer to Swahili pronunciation. When I was young it was not uncommon to meet people who had served in India and Africa in the Forces on secondment with the Post office or Police. 50 or 60 years ago older people might have had a much wider experience of the world. So I'm guessing people posted in Kenya might have brought home the Keenya pronunciation. Some years ago I remember a bungalow near my home called Shadipur, which I think is a district of New Delhi. Perhaps somebody was posted there and brought the name home for their retirement home. Cheers
@@HaxbyShed Out of curiosity I did a search for Shadipur and there were 6 different places in India 3 of them in the Punjab and 2 in Delhi. A number of my old school friends were born in places like Singapur, this was because of postings from the Navy, we used to live on the border of a naval estate. Now that you mention it I have heard several versions of Kenia. In Spanish they generally use the same sounds for the letters or combinations of letter. This gives rise to something called "güisqui" which how they write Whisky!! All the best
I pronounce Kenya the ‘modern way’ Tanz in ‘ere was, sometime around 2007 ish, a suntan parlour on the first roundabout on the A61 heading north out of Leeds city centre. It’s quite probably the greatest ever name to appear on a shop sign.

What I think is magic about creating storage space, is how quickly it's filled :)
Hi Michel, my storage is just about under control but I've still some things to find homes for. Some reorganisation required. Cheers

Yep I'm familiar with that approach. 😁 Cheers
A good project for your shop. It seems a simple project, but always more to the project than we think about at the start.
Well done.
Dave.
That's certainly true Dave. If you can get anything done within half a day it's quick (esp if you don't start until 11 and knock off by 3). Cheers
👍👍👍👍nice one Paul
i just need room to find to fit a shelf🤣🤣👍👍

Hi Kev, it soon gets crowded. Somehow I accumulate stuff. Cheers

Hiya, I do have the dust bag for the saw but I thought "this is only a quick job I don't need it on" ... 😷😷, another mistake for being lazy.
Hi Paul. I have been putting off adding much needed shelves to my workshop for far too long. I suspect your timely video will spur me into action. Nice result. 👏👏👍😀
Hi Andrew, I sent you an email by the way. Found the address on your blog page. Just something I saw this week on my travels. Cheers Paul
@@HaxbyShed Hi Paul. Email received and replied to. How kind of you to think of me.
Looks good 😀
Thanks Julia, Just an odd job but needed to be done. Cheers
Very nice work sir

do you have a link to those gloves ?

Does the job nicely 👌.
Ref pronouncing "Kenya", its always been "Kenn Ya" to me, no idea if it's due to hailing from the Black Country?
Hi John, I think it's to do with how they say it there. A bit like the Denmark / Danmark thing. Cheers
