So I bought the house on Lowery a couple of years ago thinking of it as a weekend get-a-way and eventual retirement home.  Well, that plan got accelerated, with the divorce final now, it is my full time home.  I did not want to mention the divorce until it was over.  I can say this, I'm happier than I have been in nearly a decade, my life is back on track and life is good.

I had been working off plastic tables and honestly not doing much in the last few months but I had been planning this rod shop for over a year now.  Yesterday I finally got started, it's close to complete.  I'm going to build a few rods like it is to see if I want to make changes and then I will finish and paint it.

Looking good!  The only thing I see missing is a beer fridge!

Looks great.  Nice inspiration seeing the lake outside of your workshop.

Good to hear from you Lee.  That is one neat and tidy room. 

Beautiful setup! And an inspiring view out the door as well.

Nice looking shop Lee. It's going to be your new happy place. 

I would have a hard time focusing on building with a lake like that in the background. Nice work area !

that's a sweet view you got there!

....Wait, if there's no wifi, how are you on BR?

Not only is the view great any natural light you can get is nice to work by. 

Very nice Lee. Wish I had that much space. And the natural light. I just got an LED fixture to go over my lathe. Looks like a two tube fluorescent but is all LEDs. I may get two more to go over the power wrapper.

Very nice setup you've got there,especially the water right outside your door.
