Our Shop

Had the camera out this weekend, and snapped a few pics of our shop. It WAS clean, but my dad and I have very different opinions on how to maintain a work space... To him, this is clean!

So instead of me getting to spend Friday night working on my own projects, I stayed up till 1:30pm cleaning the shop... And only got about 25% done! :eek:

And here's the wood room:

Our dust collection is located in the wood room as well. The line is ran in the concrete, and has yet to give us a second's problem.

A good power miter setup is a must:

Another must... The table saw:

And even a backup:

Gotta have air... And the decorative band saw:

You can never have too many clamps:

And most importantly, the big brown dog snoring by the door:

Sweet! I'm jealous. Looks like your shop is much larger than the shop I intend to build this spring. What are the dimension? I like the wood room!

Hey, Buddy. That's one sweet setup. I have the same Grizzly saw, pony clamps. Love the under floor dust collection, it's rare to see someone have that opportunity.

Dart board, pellet gun target, stereo, dog, beer bottle on the extra large saw table. It's amazing how many similarities you can find in any well equipped shop.

Looks like you are having fun. If you're working with your dad, suck it up - you'll miss it terribly when/if things change.

All the best, Don

[thekl0wn]

Thanks... Much better setup than squeezing all that equipment into the garage, along with two vehicles!

Pellet gun target? I don't think we own a pellet gun. Now, a hand gun or rifle target may be able to be spotted in the shop... Well, many probably can! :D Our shooting range is out back of the shop, and in the winter, dad opens the windows to shoot out of.

My next project for the shop is to figure something out for all the battery chargers. We have five total that are all the the same size, with the exception of one. I'd LOVE to get them mounted to a wall somewhere, and get that table cleared off to use.

Sounds like my kind of shop and surroundings :)

[Terry Mac]

Your shop rocks!

If you ever want to get rid of that Delta/Rockwell Unisaw let me know.


Love the beer bottle! LOL

[thekl0wn]

Yeah, we keep the fridge stocked in the office! Though, I prefer aluminum cans to bottles. :D

i'm envious.
