    Woodshop design is super important, from workflow to organization to aesthetics, lets design functional spaces that we WANT to create in! My tiny woodshop was great for handtool woodworking, but my power tools were starting to rust, so even though conditions weren't perfect, I decided to do something about it! Use what you've got to get what you need!
    ********************************
    MORE ABOUT ME
    I'm Anne of All Trades. In NASHVILLE, I have a woodworking, blacksmithing and fabrication shop, a selection of furry friends, and an organic farm. Whether you've got the knowledge, tools, time or space to do the things you've always wanted to do, everything is "figureoutable."
    I became "Anne of All Trades" out of necessity. With no background in farming or making things, I wanted to learn to raise my own food, fix things when they break and build the things I need.
    8 years ago I got my first pet, planted my first seed and picked up my first tool.
    My goal is to learn and share traditional techniques and skills while showing my peers how to get from where they are to where they want to go, how to do the things they are passionate about, and what can be done TODAY to engage their own community and grow deep roots.
    Whether it's carving spoons, making my own hand tools, restoring my antique truck or growing heirloom tomatoes, the farm and workshop definitely keep me busy and support - whether financially through Patreon, through shopping my affiliate links, through buying merchandise, plans or project videos, or even just liking, commenting, and sharing my content with others helps me GREATLY to keep producing quality content to share.

    After I retired and closed my 10,000 sq ft shop, I had the urge to continue woodworking on a smaller scale - a 300 sq ft garage! Everything is on wheels except the dust collection and air cleaner. I can move equipment out to my covered patio. I did the wiring so that I could have multiple machines operating with air and dust collection. Sweet. Just can’t be me without wood, dust, projects, glue, tools and beer (occasionally and not while using machines. Also, smoking cigars…). What a great life! You are an inspiration to all. Thank you.

    "Things don't exist in my world if I can't physically see them". I have many of the same struggles as you and have said this quote, almost ver batim, many times to my wife. People can feel alone in their struggles until that moment when someone says the perfectly relatable thing. I got really excited as soon as you said that (and had to pause the video to write this before I get distracted and forget.)

    I live in a part of Australia that has an average of 80% humidity, plus I live by the ocean. I bought some magnetic sheets and then got a motor trimmer to glue vinyl to one side. The magnet stops the atmosphere getting to the cast iron and the cost was fairly cheap. I now have zero rust on all my machines. Yay.

    @Joe___R Před 2 lety +1

    You should consider using starrett M1 on your machines as well as cover them with a zerust covers, they make them in many sizes to fit table saws, bicycles and even motorcycles. If you can't find one close enough in size to work with your machines you can always modify them to fit better. I know a few professional furniture makers who use them to cover every machine they have, if it works for shops in Florida near the beach it should work for you in Tennessee.

I will soon be building a new shop up here. I am excited again...

    We're going through the same struggles right now starting a farm and trying to get a shop built. I've got almost all my tools crammed into our 1940's farmhouse basement. I'm hopefully breaking ground on a shop building this year. It would make farm projects so much easier to build them in a shop and then haul them out with the tractor. Looking forward to seeing the school of all trades completed. My wife and I are excited to come take classes!

    Car wax contains silicone, which will cause fish eyes in you wood project finishes. Once it gets on wood it is invisible, so you don't see it until the fish eyes appear in your finishing process. Johnson's Paste Wax and Butcher's wax do not contain silicone, and are the only wax that has been used on my woodworking tools for 65+ years. I have banned anything containing silicone from my wood shop. Car waxes are for cars, and go in the garage, not in my woodshop.
    I even lubricate the gears and trunnion ways in my saws using Johnson's Paste Wax, applied with an old tooth brush. This wax gets a dry crust on the surface, so doesn't attract saw dust like petroleum lubricant's do. I re-apply it to the working surfaces of my tools whenever the wood doesn't slide easily, or about every 3 months. It doesn't cause fish eyes in my finishes.

I moved from the east side of Oregon (about 30% humidity) to the coast and the humidity on the coast creates a huge problem with keeping things from rusting. Looking forward to seeing your next video.

    • @AnneofAllTrades
      @AnneofAllTrades  Před 2 lety +1

      Burnout is such a tough battle. Make getting good sleep and intentional time to "play" your highest priority. Without those two things, we become increasingly more stressed, less productive, less effective. Clarity and quality decision making go out the window when we are under rested and living in stress. I understand all too well the pressures of big projects, tight finances, and impending deadlines- there is no greater killer of creativity, joy, or productivity. In crazy seasons juggling work, family, and other obligations, even a small, 15 minute daily practice of doing something just for you to restore some of that creativity and joy can go a long way. For me, that started last year as a 15 minute gratitude walk every evening around the farm, where I'd walk slowly, intentional about regulating my breathing and looking for any and everything, big or small, that I could take a moment to be grateful for. That 15 minutes has evolved, but it changed my life for the better.

    Nobody should be THAT BUSY! as far as the layout: if it works, it ain't wrong 👍🏼 take at least one day a week off to relax and enjoy life, ponder, think. instead of working it away.

      It's not work if you love what you are doing. God Bless to you and Annie.

    It has been a tough couple of years..... for you, me and the world it seems. I actually feel like it has been one very long year.
    Keep your chin up and remember any progress is still progress! It's great to see you talking about the ups and downs. The world needs more honesty with out the poor me attitude.
    How do you eat a whale? One bite at a time. The school will open. And it will be all the sweeter and loved because of the challenges. It will share skills that are cherished more because it is learned in person. You will be a more balanced and well rounded teacher....you can share techniques for dealing with disappointment and delays. Dare I say... your ability to inspire others is greater due to your sharing the lows. Kudos Anne!
