Well, I finished my wifes new shop, so, I cleaned out a basement room, repainted it, and made it into our lapiday shop, with everything all in the same room, Well, almost eveything, the twenty inch Highland Park , and big flat lap are still in the garage. I have everything in place, and ready to go, so here is what it looks like before the rock snot trashes it. Now, there is room enough for both of us to be working at the same time.

Parrrrrrrrrty and Woody's House! When can I come over? That is so nice, well organized,plenty of light and storage. I want that big polishing wheel! You may want to throw in a mini fridge and microwave. Once you get down there you won't want to come up for anything. Have Fun! Steve

Hey that looks real nice! Did you build those wonderful rolling drawer units yourself or did you buy them? If so, where did you find them? Those are super cool and I have a place where I took the stove out of my shop where I could use a set of those.....Mel

Oh, WOW, what a shop! Very well organised and a lot of room, there. What's that thing underneath the stairs, a small lathe?

I'm envious! I have a small desk in the laundry room, with everything else out in the cold garage.

What a great play room you built for yourself. You've been working hard between your wife's room and this. Looks like it's time for some fun now. Happy grinding.

To answer the questions, yes, I built the rolling cabinets. They are just MDF boxes with box drawers on wheels. The lathe like thing is...wait for this...a tumbler! The barrels are in the cabinet above it. Woody
