I had a big day today- I was able to upgrade from my 8x10 shed to a 12x32! We rented a trailer and brought it back today. Spent some time leveling it and cleaning it out. Can't wait to see what I can fit in this!

Tin trailer in the Georgia summer heat! 🥵 Tougher than me, that's for sure.

Finally got around to replacing the door yesterday and today. It's a huge improvement for sure!
The biggest pain was that the height of the door space in the shed was quite a bit less than the height of the door I bought, which meant cutting some out of the top and bottom of the steel door, adjusting the frame, etc...
It all works now though, and I even built a ramp with the extra wood!

Got a bunch of kydex, holstex, and Boltaron in today! Also, some handle material that looks like fun.

Got some AEB-L in today and also a bunch of different G10 pin stock- excited to try some of it (it'll be the first time)

I've been making a couple mandolin armrests recently. Here's a cedar and a teak one I finished!

Well I was going to do some heat treating yesterday and today, but my heat treat oven is failing on me. I think I may have burned up the element but i'm not entirely sure yet. I purchased a new element and we'll see when it comes...
 
Here's an ebony mandolin armrest I made. I haven't been able to do any knives because of my heat treat breaking (I have a new one on the way!)
Anyone out there play mandolin? I have several including this ebony armrest for sale.

Tonight I buried some wire about 150 feet to my shed for a 220V outlet. This will be for my heat treat oven that should be coming in the next couple of days! IMG_5987.jpeg
