Hung new lighting,new lumber racks,made mobile bases for the Jet belt and disc sander,and the spindle sander,with storage under for mortiser and PC compressor.


Thanks for looking Tom

Looks good Tom, you have a lot of stuff packed into a little space with room to move.

[Jeff Sudmeier]

Tom, it is looking great! I didn't see your shop before you started, but it looks nice and bright in their now!

Isn't it amazing how some rock, paint, and good lights really change a shop! I went from a dingy basement shop to an accessory building finished out...and I feel like I shook off a case of moody blues. Congrats on the imporvements...and ENJOY!


BTW, The Yates is beautiful...I'm green.

But what's up with the dual throat plates on the table saw? Do you have side by sides?!

[Mark J Bachler]

Hey neighbor, Great shop, very impressive array of sanders.

Jeez you Americans have so much space - I have a shed of 10' by 8' here in the UK and that's considered huge

We are spoiled, Colin but it is never enough. Keep reading, you'll see some shops beyond belief in these threads.
Welcome to the Creek. Great bunch of folks her.

Hey Tom,Tell us, better yet show us your saw set up. looks real interesting from this angle.

Nice full shop!

My shop is small at 32'X34' and An adjoining garage that makes a total size of 32'X60' The garage is where the air compressor is, along with all of the staining and finishing supplies. I also do all the staining and finishing in that area. How could someone get by with a shop 8'X10'? Unless you only scroll or turn! My shop is a full time money making business for making cabinets, and other large furiture, so 8x10 is out of the question. I can't emagine being limited to planing a 4 foot board.

Love your jointer, what type of stuff are you making these days?

[John Weber]

Looks Great, but that jointer is Killer!

Nice Job - John

[Jim Becker]

Yea, that jointer isn't going to walk away all by itself!

Thanks for posting the pics of your shop, Tom. I always enjoy seeing what others have done...and often get nice ideas from the same.

[Pete Rosenbohm]

Did you build the shop around that Air Craft carrier awesome jointer, and the shop is done very nicely
