    My goodness. So many tools so little space True testiment of getting the most out of the space you have. You have some really nice tools. The big Laguna seems so large in that space. Now you have to build an extension to the shop to put together those beautiful projects you will be making. I like the vice. Going to look at one right now.

    Funny you should mention that, no room currently to expand in my 7 sided cul-de-sac lot. I have no basement. Current 3-4 yr. plans are, daughter out of grad school in 2 years. Sell Fla condo after son (current resident) finishes his house build. Buy new house with 3 car garage and basement. Wife doesn't like parking in garage so I'll be in sawdust heaven, a 3 car garage and a full basement to call my own. I just have to promise to build a main floor laundry if there isn't one already, she's squmish in basements. So there's hope on the horizon, by the time the ultra-shop hits I'll be within a hair of retirement. Life can be good.

    You tell the wife it has to go! It's her's. I just move it out of the way around to different places.

    Chet, In moving some of the things around I did some spring cleaning. I boeshield'ed all the CI surfaces to get ready for the summer humidity. There is some on the TS because I cut some stuff right before I pic'ed. The flow is tight right now but after bench landing and it'll open up. Plus pic's have a hard time of showing depth in some cases.
