Kirk Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Greetings gentlemen and ladies, It's been a long time since I've been here, but i'm back. A shoulder operation and then a computer crash kinda let the air out of my balloon for a while. Since my last visit, I've had my shoulder operated on, and due to the way I fell on it, it had several repairs needed, the bicep reattached, and the muscle under the shoulder blade repaired as well as the rotator cuff tears. It SUCKED! We bought a house in Fountain $$$$$$$(not as close to KFLY as I had hoped), but I have 5.5 acres of space and a nice big hangar, er BARN/garage! And being that we were living in a fifth wheel for three years, we had to fill the house with furniture $$$, do some small repairs $, and just bought a new car $$, and just spent a week and a half in southern CA for Thanksgiving with my family $$$. Oh, and I have a laptop again $! Got the plans dug out and have about a third of the updates to finish, trying to get all the info I lost downloaded again, planning the workbenches and making my shopping lists. Regards, Kirk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Matcho Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Hi Kirk, Congratulations on your house -- 5.5 acres -- nice (I hope). Big barns are good. I made the EAA Chapter 1000 Standardized Work Tables for my bench. You make 4 and bolt them together as needed. Once I'm done with the big stuff I can unbolt and move to the sides of the garage.

Jon Hey Jon! Glad to hear from you! I think that's the route I'm going to take too. I like the idea of being able to move them off to the sides as separate workbenches.

Jon Matcho Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Kirk, are you off on a dirt road from the highway of Canard Progress? Were you able to convince your wife that you need a hangar?
