Ok, so I have a 2car garage and many of you know that that is not very much space for shop, however, I know of some that have less space, so I feel for you :grin:
over the past few years, I had to get creative to fit all the tools I want into my shop. many of them were upgraded and my space got smaller and smaller. Finally, I am to the point where I think I am good, sure, little stuff here and there, but over all, I have what I need.
the latest was the 24 double drum sander and I also just bought the vacu-press pump system with 2 poly bags one 4x4 foot, the other 4x8 foot pressing capacity. My last shipment will be a 3hp Oneida dust gorilla that should be here sometime late this week or early next week, I just gotta build a shed for it outside the garage, I just don't have the room inside and I also want to vent outside, here in los angeles, the weather is ok for that.
my remodel started with an upgrade of my water heater that was located in the shop, just a 50gallon unit, but still it took too much space away, so I got a new tankless heater............wow, this thing is awesome, I just can't run out of hot water anymore............ever :grin: :grin: :grin:, but the best thing is, the old waterheater is gone and I finally have the whole shop for tools.
here is what started it all, the darn heater
