Glad to see some specks of dust and detritus on the floor Kev. It looks fantastic - a great space.

It looks like you are in a dark sky site judging by the views out of the windows? Another hobby of mine is astronomy and I've recently got into deep space astrophotography. I sure wish my urban location had darker skies. We have it spoilt by LED streetlights :(

For whatever reason, I think a lot of people enjoy the two hobbies, and I include myself in that category. We're in a dark sky area outside Santa Fe, NM. Maybe it's because of our proximity to Los Alamos National Labs, but I know several woodworkers who are also into astronomy. The DeepSkyWest observatory is just a few miles east of here. If you're interested, you can use their imaging scopes via the internet. And they have some NICE equipment!

Thanks!  It does get very dark where I'm at..  It's pretty cool to be able to see the satellites with the naked eye!  That's about as close as I get to astronomy..

As for the specs of dust, I'll work on that ;)
