I sorta do stuff in the workshop in a stop and go fashion. (But when i "go", my, does time really fly fast and how i enjoy it. But sometimes, I'm passive-aggressive about it, often not going to the shop ironically because there's so much to do! I broke through my laziness by cleaning/organizing it first. 5s and all that. Still got ways to go before it becomes a place of calm and relaxation instead of a warzone.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5S_%28methodology%29
Anyhoo, made up this thread so everyone can post the current state of their workshop or what's in there. (Ala midnight-club thread.)
Tonight, i painted primer epoxy. The cast iron, i made sure as heck the rust's dead with phosphoric acid (turco) before painting. If too little turco, not all rust will convert. If too much, it will have extra white salt-like deposits that needs to be scuffed off. Put some oiled wire on the tiny holes lest they be covered with paint.
Talk about bug inclusions.
All in all, felt good that something got done, and done right tonight. 🙂
Another coat tomorrow...

Re: What's happening in your shop thread.
Your thread reminds me always that I need to build the much much delayed overhead shelves in the wood shop to lessen the clutter on the floor.
I can't even cut with the table saw without much effort re positioning things.
