Be careful of the chains Roy . I know some of the bigger tires can hit the fenders .

Here is my project today. Install a grounding rod in my shop.

I don't think many here have this issue, but if you live in a dry climate static buildup is a real problem and it's really bad in the winter. My hope is that grounding the frame of the machine I am working with, will help discharge the buildup.
I plan on using some spare jumper cables for the connections.

Also had some visitors today. They were just standing there watching Bert (dog) digging a hole!

Flem I think that'll work, just like grounding a Corvette before you spray it. Lots of static going on.
Well when I got home I decided to trim up my hackberry veneers from Kenny. Just headed knock off a quarter inch to make my longbows. I got rid of the ugly side, lol it wasn't much ugly about this just had to choose the better or the worst to get rid of. JF

  Hey out There...  Do you guys label your jigs??  I have got so many jigs that I forget what they are used for...  So I started labeling them... 

    Example, the Gizmo...  It is such a important tool that you will probably never forget what it's used for but I am going to use it as an example anyway...  I would pick up the gizmo and look at it for a good 5 minutes or so and say to myself I know this little thing has a valuable use...  Now what the hell did I stick a pencil in a piece of wood for??  You dare not throw it away... And when you finally need it, you figure out what it was used for and now you can't figure out where you put the damn thing so you make another one...  The process never ends...   :laughing:

Jeff Freeman

Nah, I only label my patterns. In inches. I hope I don't forget what the rest are for. JF oh now where did I put that what was it called oh s***. 😳😃

Please get back to us on how it works. I have the same low humidity problem as you and static is a killer in winter. If a grounding rod sorts it for you I will look at putting one in my shop.

I am getting to that point already. Can't imagine what the jig pile looks like in your shop after years of doing this. Do you have a good system for the labelling? I have thought about it once or twice and don't mind learning from the experience of others.

I'm glad not to be the only one Shredd!  I can't count the number of weird looking thingy's I have laying around, that I have no idea what they are for. I have started writing on everything homemade. I have to keep a box of ziplock bags around for odd parts, which also get labeled. Pretty soon I am going to have to start leaving notes to my future self :tongue: :tongue:
