Not much of a view from the rear- Obscure glass in the windows. The back is a builders yard anyway. I'm stood on a pile of bricks to take this picture!

Whats a half lapping machine? Does it just do what it says?

 

[joiner_sim]

The half lapping machine.....

We use it for cross jointed glazing bars. I think it can accomodate up 64mm.

You push the timber into the machine and the air copressed clamps lock it in, you then pull a motor with a 45 degree router bit in it towards you, then theres a little gadget that allows you to flip the timber over, and as you do this the half lap is created, by a saw cut, then you push the motor with the router bit inaway from you. then flip the timber back over again and release the clamps and the glazing bar is half lapped.

It takes about 10-20 mins to setup but if you've got a few windows with glazing bars in, it saves time on morticing and tennoning.

This is the new workshop.. I have never built before but thought I'd give it a try. Got lots of advise from friends and managed to get it built by myself within 6 weeks.

The plot with slab. Got plans for the mature cedar when the misses is next away!!

View through the roof

Never built a roof before but I'd love to do it again.

Just hope it doesn't collapse...

Hi Russ,

Lovely size workshop, but I think you have too much ventilation 8)

We need more and regular pictures.

View from the left hand side of the workshop up the garden (1 in 4 slope).

The view from the window down the valley on the right hand side of the workshop:

This view is currently blocked by the old dining table, chairs and a bunch of wood.
