New woodshop in a historic home

It sounds like a well equipped shop.
What are you doing for lumber and sheet goods storage?

There’s a wall (8x20) with lumber rack with hardware from lee valley. Horizontal, unfortunately only, because the ceiling is low. There’s a bit of room between the dust collector and the racks for about 6 sheets of 3/4 but im mainly a solid woods guy anyhow.

Beautiful shop and great equipment. I'd love to see some pictures of the outside of the house.

I can't imagine what the electric bills used to be with 150 MR16 bulbs. When we renovated our new home, the first thing I did was replace the old MR16 fixtures with new LED ones. Electric bills went from $1500/month to $0 (OK, it's solar powered, but still dropped incredibly).

Not sure where in the country you are, but do you know what the electric bills were before?
