Well…I’ve spent the better part of the afternoon cleaning the shed. If I have another 3 afternoons where I feel like getting out there and cleaning, I just might have it to the point where I can actually get out there and do a little woodworking.

I hear ya....woodworking shops are the personification of entropy...and then if you add a 3 y,o, granddaughter who loves to work in the shop with her grandpa, the rate of clutter, disorganiztion, etc increases exponentially...seems like it never gets clean...one of the few times I wouldn't mind a little Obsessive compulsive tendencies..

My wife often wonders just what the heck I'm up to in the shop and when I tell her It needs to be cleaned again she just cant swallow it!
maybe I should tell her I got other woman to see me in there! that may sound like a more reasonable explanation.
best of luck with the cleaning it can get frustrating cause then you got all this new space and you got to make plans for that as well.

Make your own mistakes not someone elses, this is a good way to be original !
Just be sure to have a jug out there for a little refreshment after working for an hour or so.

HaHa, yeah, nowadays my jug has lemonade it it.

Better than my milk of magnesia me thinks. LOL
Man, you drink a jug of MoM every day, or just when you clean your shed? Must be a stressful day cleaning. Hope you don't have to do it every day!

9mikey,
Know what you call vodka mixed with milk of magnesia, instead of orange juice?
A Phillip's screwdriver.

Perhaps citrate of magnesia? After all, those Canadians ARE a little on the tart side!!!!

Bob,
Hmpph! New fangled inventions, and out of Canada, yet. Never saw one in a Queen Anne chair...whyncha call em square drive and be done?
A nice Canadian lady told me once how Canada got its name. They were drawing letters out of a hat, to decide what the new country would be called. The first three letters, as announced to the crowd: "C..eh..." "N..eh..." "D..eh..."
Ray, still learning new things
Ray,
whyncha call em square drive and be done?
What! That would be too modern what with all the brew haw haw in a recent discussion about the virtues of square headed screws. He only invented the screws and the driver back in what, 1906?
Tisk, tisk , tisk.
'Sides, that would have taken all the fun outa it,Bob @ Kidderville Acres
