    For those who are interested...

    Well - LOML heads for Japan next Saturday for 2 weeks with her Quilting "girls". This means I can get some REAL (continuous) time to give you a tour of Kirby's Shed.

    (After cleaning up ) My plan is start on the left (Drill Press) and go around the walls (to the Grinder) - taking new pics above and below. Finishing with the stuff in the center of the Shed. I'll intersperse the pics with comments - jigs, my originals, "stolen" designs, drawer contents etc.

    My plan is to label posts as:

    Kirby's Shed: Introduction (size, power, lighting, DC etc.)
    Kirby's Shed: 1. Drill press
    Kirby's Shed: 2. Drill Press stand
    Kirby's Shed: 3. "Small" Triton Router table
    Kirby's Shed: 4. etc, etc.

    How does this approach sound? I'm happy to do it some other way, if you want.

            Can ya 'trash' the place a little instead of cleaning up??? ... You'd make some of us 'mere mortals' feel a lot better!!!
            If it ain't broke.. don't fix it!!!... but you can always 'hop it up'

                I too am eagerly awaiting Le Tour de Shed.

                One request, Rod: any possibility you could post a plan showing the layout of the various tools and stations?

                  I can't wait. I am still planing the transformation of my shop from general to WW so I'm looking for ideas. I can almost guarantee that mine won't be 0.001% as nice but I'll try.

                    Be sure to include the saw dust in the dust collector container to prove you actually do produce some
                    Just kidding, I'm looking forward to seeing your post.

                          Nice. Everything looks so neat and organized. Love all the extra workbench space and storage drawers.

                            Looking forward to the tour.

                            But a question is prompted! Doesn't the LOML insist on parking the car in your workshop (as mine does) when it gets cool, cold, or downright freezing?

                            Regards, Steve
