New workshop build

I also made this out of aluminum to add the second dust port for the hammer band saw.
It is a aluminum tube with tapper hole inside welded to a 3/8 plate and 6 small magnets at the face to keep it on the side of the machine safely.

The dust nozzle was made out of 2.5 x 6 inches round stock 6061 and is fully adjustable. The height of the nozzle can be change from 5" to 20" by moving the stainless steel plates and adjustable handles. It also gets connected to 27mm hose inside and 36mm outside. Here the pics

Beautiful setup and nice to have all the additional support and also to be able to utilize it with adjacent tools like your CMS.

Question about your drill press.

It looks like you can raise/lower the height of the head on the column as well as the table like most drill presses.

Thanks for the comment and yes you can raise/lower both the head and the table and they both turn 360 degree around the column.

Some really nice ideas for dust collection.  Looking forward to the clamp rack.
Thanks, I have to paint it as well, so I think it will be done in two weeks.
 
I'm looking forward to these updates more than GoT episodes!  [tongue]

Where do I look to order the MegaWall slats?

Thanks.

Boards are made and I will start put them together.

Well, It is done.
It is made with domino, only 24 #12 screws were used for casters. This is just dry fit to make sure it fits nice and then I have to sand and paint. Oh and some hardware for both sides slot wall.

That's one beautiful clamp rack. Can't wait to see it finished and full of clamps. Your workshop is awesome.
 
This is what puzzles me. You made this rack and your shop still looks like surgery room. Where is the dust and random junk?
Great job.

Thanks, painting goes slow because of the steps and sanding between the coats but I think will be done by next Sunday.

I promised myself to keep it this way but do not count on it. [big grin]
Junk usually gets clean up right after work and move to garage and sit there till garbage day.
 
OK folks, the clamp rack is done.

You might ask for the dimensions or how much space does it takes to park the rack?
Not much but will hold a lot of clamps and accessories. It takes a space just like you put three sys-port next to each outer with sortainer on the top. Look at the picture below.

Thanks for watching and the comments, I will load it up with clamps after breakfast and post some pics.
