Perhaps a re-organization of your shop tools is in order Reg, put your lathe on one end, the mill on the other, tools for each at opposite ends & your workbench in the middle... you'd get an incredible amount of exercise everyday.

Yes, better for exercise Joe but no good for production as you said! Too much time lost walking between machines!lol I used to spend a bit of time walking back and forth from my parents place to use Dad's lathe. I now have a mini lathe in my own shop and it does the trick for most small stuff. It takes less time to do things now but there is less and less reason for me to even go outside...Good thing I need to pee every now and then

That downhill stuff looks sketchy to me. I have never made it to the dunes although I would like to go. I think I would take my ATV for that one though. I have never been a fan of riding in sand on a dirtbike. Finding medical insurance to cover what they consider an "extreme sport" outside of Canada is pretty expensive so I'll probably never make the trip. I'll just stay here and ride in my backyard until "the man" tells me I can't anymore.
