    Wow, that's almost too pretty to use. I really like the light wood for the cabinets.

    Nice digs Dick. the shop space looks very conducive to productive woodworking. you did good by making it well lit, organized, and set up to follow a work flow.

    so what are you building in your shop? cabinets, furniture? is it a hobby shop or for profit?

    That is absolutely beautiful. In the dictionary under "perfect shop", they should have the pictures of your shop. Use it safely and make lots of good stuff.

    Very nice

    Do you need a map to find your way around all of that space.

    Makes my 120 sq. ft. seem very very small.

    Wow!!!

    You definitely SUCK! and I mean that in the kindest of ways!

    That is awesome, pretty much what most of us dream about. Have fun and enjoy our collective envy!

    Nice shop Dick,

    Sure the size is nice, and the machines are nice, but what I was most impressed with was the cabinets. Nice layouts and plenty of drawers for storing all your treasures. Hope you have many years of fun and enjoyment!!

    By the way, nice camera work also!

    Great looking shop. Is that a basement shop? Really looks like a place you will enjoy.

    Great shop! If you had a bathroom and cot next door, there wouldn't be any reason to leave the shop

    Great way to use the space with the back-to-back jointer and lathe. That lathe bed is HUGE! What model is that?

    Very nice. I wish my shop was as close to "almost" done as yours. Outstanding work.

  12. I'm so jealous!

    Congratulations Dick. That's looks like a great place to hang out and work with wood.
