The subject comes from a line in The World At War... I have watched it several times and that scene makes me tear up every time. Laurence Olivier nailed it.
My shop had 3 semi-truckloads of equipment and tools (and even household stuff, the HORROR!) emptied into it, and I was completely paralyzed. I couldn't think straight (some say that is still true) and I couldn't find a 1/4"-20 nut to save my life. I just abandoned all hope when I entered it. The stock rack had become a catch-all rack... You couldn't see through it. Now you can see the Clausing turret lathe peaking through there. There was a CNC cutting table taking up > than 1/2 of the open area (well, mostly open) and it was stacked about 6' tall... Maybe higher in spots. The walkways had become narrow and dangerous. I am a bit OCD and living in this clutter had -really- messed with my well-being. I'm thinking 2 more weeks before it gets to where I want it to be, and then some of the construction projects can start again. |

Your lack of Imgur capability is horrifying.
