We had a garage door repairman come over to fix the torque assist on the garage door yesterday. Before coming over he informed us that he needs at least three feet of clearance all the way along the door...doh!
Well, we've been wrangling home projects for some time now so the shop was not in it's most oganized state anyway, so compressing it all back and giving up about 60 square feet of space was really going to be a mess.
The garage door now works perfectly again...smooth and quiet. Now this seems like a great time to redo my whole shop layout and organization. I've never done this...just sort of grew along with the upgrade or acquisition of new tools. My big wants are to paint the walls white and provide lumber storage. I got to the point where I was constantly moving small piles of stock around to make room to use a machince or...yes, to add something else to the mess. I'm also looking to add mobile bases to my jointer, planer and band saw, and I'll be building a mobile clamp cart to reclaim wall space for other storage.
How involved will it be? You decide...here are the pics of the current chaos!
