I finally squirreled away enough money on a seafarers wage to buy my little micro shop. It's 8 x 12 and all mine. No cars. No wife. No pets. No kids.
I have a contractor saw, a lunchbox planer on a mobile chop saw stand, and tabletop versions of a drill press, band saw, router table, and the monster 12" sliding chop saw. Plan on building myself a 5' x 2' workbench. I do plan on having dust collection (1 HP HF with a 30-gallon plastic barrel secondary) which will be outdoors to keep the planer, saw, and whatever else under control as I suspect a great deal of work will be outdoors. Good thing I live in Florida and use to the elements. While I would like to see everything in the shop maybe on mobile carts, I am also a realist. These tools aren't light. I am thinking the chop saw will have to live in storage till I need it for cutting down lumber. Lumber storage is under one of the protected eaves of the house and I only buy what I plan on using. Pipe clamp storage and glue ups will be up in the rafters. I'm sure a lot of my woodworking will have to be done old school too. Hand saw, and planes. Hopefully, your suggestions will help me out from going back to the Flintstone era.
