Working Outside?
Do you ever work outside? If so what do you use for a workbench or work surface out there?

I use the fence designed for my miter saw and the folding table Dewalt offers for my contractor table saw. Anything else ends up on saw horses, my tailgate, or occasionally a hallway scaffold set at working height.
Shop Space Struggles
How do you maximize the space in your workshop; especially if you have a small shop? Show us some pictures and let us know how you're doing it.

My outside shop dimensions are 16×20. Lots of shelving and cabinets help, but my secret is wheels. Even my router table/storage unit is mobile. I can push/pull/drag just about everything on the floor to make room for a project or operation.
Free tools
A fellow woodworker has retired do to poor health and ask me if I wanted a few tools. He also gave some hand tools that I'm very thankful for having.

Like the saying goes, anything free is worth saving up for! Seriously though, what a wonderful legacy to pass on tools and equipment to someone who will use them and appreciate their value.
Turning on the lathe
Decided I need to learn my way around lathe work. This piece is not sophisticated, but it's the first bowl I've turned in nearly 40 years.

Turning on the lathe
So funny 🤣
We've all been there: starting a project with high hopes, only to realize it's going to take longer than anticipated. Care to share your experiences with projects that stretched beyond their original timeline?

@David Isaac same age, similar situation. But my son did help, roots didn't prove to be a problem, and I've been a builder all my life. It's hell getting old. The fatigue is a real thing. But in the end we adapt and overcome. Keep on keeping on brother!
