Building my shop

Last week we were supposed to participate in the 5K fun run at the Houston Marathon. We got there too late and weren't able to participate. Rats!

I bought a miter saw off Craigslist for $25. This turned out to be a real piece of crap, and I found that the blade guard was all screwed up and I ended up removing it.

I found a old retiring carpenty off Craigslist and bought his contractor table saw for $375. He threw in for free 10 inch Delta miter saw and a half pickup truck full of pine and cedar lumber. Also gave me a tapering jig and roller stand.

My project now is to build a system of rails on my garage wall for hanging storage.
