If you go with the beaded curtains, where are you putting the brass pole?

Brass pole will be going from the attic space to the middle of the shop. That way I can provide the fireman and she can provide the extinguisher all in one go!!!

The foundry in Victoria had a fireman’s pole as a service bell you could strike with a base drum stick to get their attention.

@140mower - I was going to suggest you keep your back to the wall. LOL

My thought was to put a 48” roll up on the wood working side.

That was my thought as well.

I can picture the pole, but I can't quite see the rest. All's I know for sure is that you sailors are all crazy...... So it's probably for the best to leave it that way

Years ago I worked as a partsman/purchaser for a local company that was owned by some fairly conservative Mennonites. I fielded a call for some materials that was a bit unusual but I proceeded ahead anyways.

The boss comes in, asks me what I'm doing. Told him I was sourcing a brass pole. "For what?", he innocently asks. After a moment's hesitation I come clean & tell him it's for the local stripper bar. His face turns red, he gets all flustered, mutters something about me doing a good job & bails out of the room.

As an aside, we didn't get the job...
