Nice Dave. I've had the plans for one of these for years with the intent of making one and never got around to it. With my slow down now due to wife's retirement and or travel schedule i doubt it will get done.

Haven't been able to use the shop for over a week. Medford, Oregon is surrounded by fires - we are north of Redding Ca and all that smoke comes to roost in our Rogue Valley (Medford) - last week Medford had the worst air quality in America. Made one's lungs hurt to be outside for any length of time.
My shop, alas, is not 'tight' so is no barrier to the smoke.
Or the 105 F temps.

Dave in our valley were are getting smoke from the Ferguson fire in Mariposa county. I can only imagine how bad it is there from the Carr fire.
