Well this weekend was relatively productive, mainly getting some stuff done around the garage, no real work on stuff yet.
First thing up was getting the race car into its proper position, and up on stands:

Thats a start anyway. Just need to get some stuff done with it though… oh and clear all of the stuff off it. It has become a bit of a defacto storage sturface as you can see.
Next up was to build a little dust collector for the thicknesser, and knocked up this Thien baffle quickly:

Which gives a nice 60L bin full of fluffy wood shavings:

To build it i knocked up a quick circle jig for the router, using the 3D printer:

Uses a 608 bearing and some M8 threaded rod. Simple as.
Finally on the shop organisation side i finished off the cabinet for the drill press i knocked together to calibrate the table saw.

Doors are reclaimed from a mates’ bathroom reno (got all of the cabinetry, you can see one of the carcasses under the bandsaw) and one of the hinges is a bit busted, hence it sits proud slightly.
Inside are shelves:

With just a lip on them to hold the drill bits and other accessories
Works pretty well. Planning on making a little palletwood top for it later to store the vises, but havent got around to that yet.
Thats about it for a short few hours in the shop this weekend. Starting to feel like i have things at least vaguely organised so i can get some other work done in there soon.
