I am not sure what to be more impressed with. The video content or that fact that someone was able to successfully embed a video in Lumberjocks.

HaHa, I'm more than sure the embedding of the video is more impressive.
Here is the site that does it.

BTW - I believe our friend Scott Markwood (the other Shopsmith guy) is a corporate trainer for Hafele America. He's a pretty cool dude, sure he wouldn't mind a reach out.

Update on the painting. Slow going when you can only layout a little at a time.

So far I have 2 coats of primmer on everything with a good sanding in between coats.
If anybody wants to know I use a precat primmer/undercoater
It's a great product that fills voids good and powders up nice as you sand.

From what I see it looks great.

Put the file drawers in.
Mounted the lock pieces parts.
Not much to them, very low security but as they say, keeps an honest person honest.
I'm going to add a few more straps, and screws, over the bar that slides up and down.

Each drawer has two rows of files.

Here you are doing all kinds of work. I am struggling to put drawer pulls on two drawers! Maybe today is the day?

Real nice work as usual. Thank you for posting and this great info.

Looking like some high end stuff, well done. And it is better than what one can purchase in an office supply store.

LeeRoy,

Thanks for the comments on my Drop Zone table. I did the build at my old house, trying to get it done before we moved. All I did here (new home) was add the drawer pulls. The pulls are really cool. Made in Bulgaria or some place. They have cool glass in the pulls. I did not show them, because my wife ordered them (after I showed her where I found them), because if any LJ's said hey like those cool pulls Petey, she would take full credit for the build of the table. :}

LOL, wifes, you got to love them, haha

I thought it would have been a quick turnaround if you had built them in the new house.

Don't listen to MM about the grain direction on the bottom shelf.
The way I look at it there are no rules, and besides it goes with the floor….

It really is a nice build and fits the spot perfectly.

With these big glue ups and finishing projects do you still get a little frantic while doing it? Or you have done it so many times you can do it in your sleep?

I've done it so many times, it's just routine. There's never really any curve balls, so nothing to get excited about other than deadlines.

When I ran my Commercial shop, we mainly built the merchandising displays and the exterior store fronts and cash counters.
We did stores all over the place (Texas, Florida, Georgia, Arizona, Cal.,) Also did a lot here in Vegas, Malls and Casinos. We would build them here load the trucks and travel.
There were big penalties if you did not have their stores ready to stock when you were supposed to.
Every place was different,
Dealing with General Contractors, Codes, Inspectors, Unions, Property Access, etc.etc…
I think there were plenty of times you could say I got a little frantic, but always persevered…

That said, this is a cakewalk.

I'm out at the speedway now.
I remember when you were here. Asked you once if you knew Mark Snodgrass? Being in the flooring business.
I've done a lot of work for him. I've bought a lot of material at Virginia Hardwoods.
Any of that ring a bell?

Messed up a little. Long story short I ended up with the right side opening 1/8 to small for the glass shelves.
Bringing the glass back to the shop and going to run them through the jointer a few times to shorten them up.

GREAT JOB MASTER :<)))))))
