    Shop Update [PICS]--actual progress

    OK, so my shop is still messy but I can actually build stuff in it. I don't have
    the energy to work on it during the week so my time is confined to the
    weekends. A lot of my stuff is up on 2 shelving units I bought at Lowes. I
    can actually walk around now.

    In my last post, I moved my old workbench into its new position as my
    outfeed table. Since then I closed the gap between the bench and the TS.

    I was inspired by a recent FWW article about the ultimate outfeed table. I
    was going to build that instead of moving my bench, but my bench won. This
    weekend I built a storage unit for my TS accessories. It came together
    pretty quickly and I was able to use up a bunch of random plywood pieces I
    had lying around.

    Here's an overall pic of the shop. You can actually see the TS now. I moved
    the BS to the left side of the shop. The planer will probably go back to the
    right side. My goal is to make room for a 8" jointer on the right side of the
    shop.



    The new TS unit gives me space for all my TS accessories like saw blades,
    ZCTPs, safety stuff, etc. The open shelf on top holds my panel sled. I still
    need to add a shelf on the left side for rip fence storage--not sure how
    important that is, though. At some point, I won't have any junk sitting on top
    of my rip fence--well maybe except a pencil or two.



    You can see my router insert plate to the right. I want to build a cabinet
    around the router for dust collection and for bit storage. I'll attach it to the
    right side of the TS unit. Maybe next weekend.

    Thanks for looking,
    Paul
