I’m starting to downsize myself. Next year I’ll be selling some GT’s that I don’t need to make some room. I hate to keep them outside all year long.

@Harry I agree with you about storing out door. Down sizing enough to bring the remainder indoors is a challenge, but I continue to work at it.

Marketplace bit me this afternoon. I have been watching ads for redirack load beams. 4 pieces 7 foot long to be exact. An ad popped up at noon listing galvinized beams, 4pc × 7', 6 pc.x 8' , and 4 pc x 9'. The package price was $7.50 per beam.
The 7 footers completed the rolling workbench and the remainder are stacked at on top of rack along back wall of the shop. Now a search is on for 48" x 10' uprights to add shelving over the lathe and upgrade stacking crates.
