Show me your shop

[bfrikken]

I've seen posts that some have provided links or pictures showing off their shop. I hope you don't mind another question related to this? I've been amazed and how ingenious others are at shop solutions from maximizing space in small shops to simply providing a good layout for their space. I've started work on my garage cabinets that I hope leads to me being able to get everything off the floor and into storage, so things don't keep getting covered in sawdust.

Once that is done, I'm going to start on some cabinets for my tools. If you have a link to your shop online or some pics you don't mind posting, I'd love to see them. I continue to peruse the posts related to this, and keep discovering shops I haven't seen.

I have a standard 2 car garage that has enough room around the perimeter with only a deep freeze in the way. Thanks in advance, and I know this will be a repost for some.

Here's mine but I warn you, "arranging" things doesn't keep out the sawdust [)].

thanks for the links so far.

Ray, I notice you have your CMS in the corner? Do you move it out when making cuts or is it Fixed there?

Ken, thanks for the link. I think I'll be putting most everything I can on casters. I have one portable Cabinet that I use for glue ups and as my outfeed table.

Larry, I notice your ultimate tool stand more or less provides an outfeed surface rather then additional side table space like most the other cabinets I've seen built on the site. Are you glad you went this way?

Terry, I see you have a sink in your shop. That must be nice. I'm thinking of leaving a spot open for a sink in my garage. I have a shared wall that I may be able to run the plumbing for a sink which would be right outside my door that enters the house.

Covered in the post - STORED in the corner - used on its own stand or on one of the flip-up benches, depending on length of stock to be cut.

I'd kill for a sink in my shop.

As it stnads now, the nearest sink is in the guest bath - the one I'm not allowed to use without supervision. One of these days I'm going to screw up when cleaining a paint brush and be in serious trouble.

Guess I'll have to clean up and take some low res pics. I have some but they are like 2+MB in size.

Okay, here is my first go at a layout. I added some descriptions to help with what I want to do. So far your pics have been very helpful.

If your using Windows just open the pic in Paint, then Image, Stetch/Skew. Put a percentage in for horizontal and vertical and the pic will be resized. Then just Save As with a new filename.

I have photoshop. These are from a couple months ago. Its pretty messy again. I have scraps all over. Im making three mirrors at once and its in the hundreds out so I don't stay out very long at a time. once I finish these I will give it a good cleaning. I will take a few new pics then to show the layout better.
