Hi all, been absent again for a couple years (except for an occassional lurk), but I thought some of you long time members might be interested in my new shop (translation=gloat!). I finally got my garage built. 2 story (the second story is all woodshop), started in 2004, finished last year, but I just recently got moved into my new space. I didn't build the garage, but I did do all the work inside.
I don't know how to embed the pictures anymore, since the forum has changed so much, and I don't think I have a photo storage site anymore (I am NEVER on the computer anymore, and forgot everything), so I uploaded them here and you'll have to hit the links, I guess.
Heres the building from the outside, front
and rear
Heres a shot from the entrance (steps inside garage)
and another corner. Here you can see my lumber rack and a double french door which will someday lead to a deck
This is a new bench I made for the place. I made it in my old basement shop this winter. The top is 3 layers of 3/4" mdf and a skin of 1/4" masonite. Man is it heavy
and finally my pride and joy DC (for those who remember) is still going strong. I kept it downstairs and and ran the pipes through the floor of the shop.
I haven't used it that much yet, since it just got functional a month or 2 ago. I had to wait until most of winter was finished since I still don't have heat there yet. That is coming this summer. Most of the work I have done in there has been associated with the shop itself and not any kind of furniture yet. But it is nice to have room to swing a board around from the planer to the bench, without banging into something.
