Ivan’s new workbench.

Post by IvanV22 »

Some background info. For 2 years ago I learned that that planes for the new 4 lane motorway had been moved, now I would have a 120 meter high bridge about 200 meters in front of my house. After thinking a lot a dicided to sell the farm, it felt strange, it had been in the family for several generations. But the house was from 1850 with lots of stairs and my health isn’t getting better. So I sold the farm to the firm that’s building the bridge, and got a god price.
Bought me a 2 bedroom flat on the ground floor in a block with 15 apartments designed for old people, have a huge grass area around the the block. Life is so much easier now.
Used over a year, packing , selling and driving stuff to the garbage site. And now it’s unpacking time. Still not finished, but have begun using the guest room as a hobby room, still not finished, but got my PC and workbench up and going. Am thinking of one more bench for wooden models. Also bought me a first class gaming chair, that is wonderful to sit in.
The view isn’t the greatest, but from the living room I am looking over the river.

Well it was either this or attach thousands of balloons to your farmhouse and float away. Sounds like you made the right decision and I hope you are happy in your new home.

Yes a great chair. Bought it online for 2000 Nkr about 200€, that with a 30% discont , its a heavy chair, weighs about 31 kg! And is tested at 150kg! So I can drink all the beer I want! Also read custom reports that they had changed chairs every year,but had used this one for over 2 years.
