Default Re: Setting up Shop in Dayton (aka Cholla's Retreat)

As I was inspired by other guys' shops (here and at Garage Journal), glad others can pick up a thing or two. So, I am taking it that everyone will have vintage wooden phones as intercom? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Last night I installed the main house intercom that connects to the shop. When you turn the hand crank on the top box, it rings this box and the phone out in the shop. It'll make napping under the cars a bit more of a challenge as these bells are <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">LOUD</span></span> [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img]! It is a different setup with a distinct upscale handset! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img] Also pictured (hanging off of the wooden crate) is the metal battery box which powers this system. Only needs 3 volts and about 20ma to operate.
