The Official Man Cave Thread

I had never heard the term "pillar drill". Same thing. I have two on the property, but they are not nearly as nice as the one you show. Picked both of mine up used, and cheap over the years. Mine are full height, and sit on the floor. One is a 16 speed set up with a machinists vise I keep bolted to it's bed. The other I made a wood bed for it and keep as part of my woodworking shop. I have kept some form of a shop at home since my wife and I set up a home together in 1972. It got moved to this location in 1988. Finally getting to organize my stuff after all these years. If you don't keep working you die. ...J.D.

 

The nice warm weather is holding so I am moving more equipment over to my heated garage ...J.D.
Hope.to.get everything moved before it turns.cold.again...

 

Well, this is going to be it. The wall to the garage will be closed, all walls plastered, and then in with big TV and soundsystem. And a fridge, of course!

 

Right, garage is closed off, and the first two walls are plastered. Bike has to live under the verandah for the moment. Progress!

 

That is a lovely space you are making, I think I hate you!

 

Getting somewhere...

 

Cheers Jez. I'm going to stick a new floor in this week, and then order a big fridge, a sofa and something to put the 55" tv in. Happy days!

 

Not long now..... looks very smart

 

Looking good @Vulpes, when's the party

 

My man cave consists of an 8' x 12' shed and the garden the shed is stuffed with a pillar drill an old Drumond lathe a workbench and shelving...oh and the bike so its a case of removing the bike if i want to do anything but at least it has power...when i remember to switch on the power and solar LED if i dont but you cant power a drill with solar and the added benefit of cooking in the summer and freezing in the winter....but its surprising what gets done in there.

 

Mind you this was all done at the side of the road (apart from the repaint but then all the shuts etc where also done roadside)

 

Progress! @Dozers Dad , I chucked the vagrant out, he was holding me up too much...

 

I put the floor in in two evenings- work gets in the way you know. The hobo could just not keep up - amateur!

 

Pushed CERBERUS out of the way
And painting his lair

 

So that's why its All been quiet on the Dilli front, recently as far as fabrication is concerned

 

FTM - Fast Triumphs Matter?

 

Yeah summit like that

 

"Female-to-Male." The abbreviation "FTM" is most widely used with the meaning "Female-to-Male," to refer to a transgender person who is transitioning from being a woman to being a man. The transition may be physical (i.e., involving surgery and/or drugs) or social.

 

FTM
So that explains your preference , and understanding of the cross gender situation , Personally I would be pulling all transgender statues down
