Keeping the thread up to date...
Bandsaw.
After installing the Kreg fence and getting it dialed in, all desired mods are done, kind of . I could use to sand down the base and give it a proper paint job, but not gonna happen any time soon so I am calling it done enough for now.
Dust collector.
Done. 12" Wen impeller, Wynn 35a filter, neutral vane, enough CFM to do the job where I need it done. Happy with it. The miter saw collection is still awful but that is sort of the nature of those...
Benchtop tools.
Flip top stands done, dedicated stand for hte sharpening station done.
Shop storage cabinets
Miter saw cabinet done.
Table saw under wide table storage drawer done. Shop vac and trash can separator will live immediately under that.
To do...
Compressed air.
Done.Mostly. Upgrade to 3/8" MPT Type V couplers since they will also take the what are they Type M I think that Central Pnuematic sells, are being slowly replaced. Going all Miltons here.
Lighting.
Done..Double end powered LED light conversion.
Cleanup. This is mostly done, however...
Pending.

To do...
- Lathe tools storage cabinet. I am simply going to make a box to hold 2 drawers on the OE stand, and an enclosure at the bottom of the stand to hold ballast. Design done, basic plywood box iwth face frames to get some practice in. Consider this in progress at a liesurely pace since it hot out now.
- Build extension tables / fence with T track for stops for my miter saw station. Flip stops and tapes finally back in stock, ordered, should be here Sunday, I have enough scrap ply to make this happen quickly. Not sure how to actually make it where I can mount it... WIll figure that out later I guess. Probably screwed in from underneath...
- Drill press storage cabient. This is doing to sound incredibly stupid, but neighbor was throwing out one of those wide Sterilite 3 drawer craft stuff containers, I was going to snag it for my wifes crafty stuff, but had a stroke of genious, or maybe just a stroke.Mmount up box on casters tall enough to basically straddle my drill press mobile base, and mount the plastic cabinet to that. I have sterilite cabinets in the shop that have been there 15 years so far. If I have to replace it in 15 or so, so be it...

- Sweep and vac up all the sawdust created when the DC was disassembled. There is an awful lot of it. Progress has been made, I joked only slightly joking about opening the garage doors and blowing out with a leaf blower. I might have to do that just to get it clean...
- Sort the WTF is it box by the camping gear. THis is an ongoing project that will probably be done when I am dead.
- Finish removal of the 4" DWV floor run at the tool wall, This will allow me to get closer to the wall and clean up the stuff clogging up my space. This also means almost all of my tools along the powered wall need to be moved out for a bit. Bleh...
