    I was going to ask the same question Mike. How are you going to set it up Bruce?

    Before Woodcraft closed, I made a deal with the owners for 3- Jet 1014 Mini's, 1 Rikon 70-100, 4 - work tables 32' X 36" , 4 - chucks, and Various tools, stools, and stuff. Since then I bought 3 - 8 piece Turning sets and New live centers.

    The area will be 12X24 on one side and 12 X 28 on the other(concrete/plaster wall) is useless, so three student lathes will be on the shorter wall, facing away from the window. My Lathe, the Rikon, will be up at the headwall. There will be a counter on the long wall to hold a drill press, band saw, and combo belt/disk sander and several display shelf units for blanks, etc.

    Since I am GOD AWFUL at flat work, there ain't gonna be no teachin' o' that here. (unless, down the road, someone wants to rent the shop for a demonstration, with their own tools).

    Took some pictures today, "fourth work day" thread to follow.

    Bruce

    Sounds great Bruce. May your wisdom guild your students right into the vortex and there checks into your bank account.

    Good luck,
    Mike
