Here's my lil shop.

[Bill Wyko]

Here's the rest of my lil shop. If you look close, you can see a place to stand.  Now the Festool stack goes up the other side of the drill press too. This shop was dirt this time last year. Once I had the floor joisted I told the LOML I'd have it from floor to roof in one day. She said  "no way possible, I'm going to work". You know I HAD to do it ;D She got home as I was putting the last piece of plywood on the roof. What a great "I told you so" that was. ;D Plus it was supposed to go from the mid 80s to the 100s the next day. That's a great motivator too.

The bottom picture looks familiar. I have seen it somewhere before? ???

 

[neoshed]

Looks tight but well organised. Is that a air filter mounted under your TS ?

 

[Bill Wyko]

Yes it is but it's getting moved to the roof soon. I just need a hand holding it in place.

Don't let the picture fool you. I took that pic because that was the cleanest it had been in 6 months. I'll post updated pictures in about another 5 months when I clean like that again. You know, a leaf blower can really get in the corners good. ;D

Bill, how many square feet is you shop?  I ask b/c it doesn't look like you could fit that much stuff in there from the exterior pic, yet you do.  Do you finish the pieces you've posted here in there or somewhere else?  No matter the size, definitely one of the most impressive layouts I've seen, Eric

Hi,

        You've been watching too much Caddy Shack

      Are the newer systainers in the spot where that green chair is?

Yes, now the green chairs sit in front of the stack on the left and the stack on the right starts with the CT33. As far as the dimentions go, it's 12x20 outside and 11.25x19.25 inside. Talk about a wedgie Whats funny is I keep finding more little spots for more tools. I recently added a 6" jointer to the far side of the table saw and a fridge under the sander. Have any of you seen Henry Studley tool chest? I'm trying to make the Studley of large tools shop. ;D(Google Henry studley masonic tool chest) It'll floor you. As far as finish goes, i usually do hand rubbed finishes so the air stays clean, as well as my tools. Thanks for the compliments guys. I'll post more pice next time I clean like this.

Here's a fewpics of it a year ago. There hard to see but there's 20 concrete columns 2-1/2 feet deep in the ground with "J" bolts in them.

Bill,

How do you like the new Powermatic drill press?  Is it worth the extra money over a Jet or similar?

Nice shop.  I need to get a larger lathe and drum sander someday.

Tom.

 

[Bill Wyko]

Yes, I love that lil drill press. Variable speed is great. It does require some break in of the belts though.

Who has the foresight to take "before" photos?

That tool chest makes my hair stand up. I wish I could have met this man. What a talented individual. BTW that tool chest has been exibited in the Smithsonian institute. I figure that if I took pictures a city inspector could see it if I ever sell the house. ;D

Bill,
Is your shop powered with extension cords? Just wondering cause of the cords run through the window.

[robtonya]

mine is, for now. I haven't done the wiring for mine yet. It's high on the list because after I wire it, then I can build a deck over the buried wires.

It was, up until about 8 months ago. It took longer to get the electrical done than it did to build it. :-\
