Big, small, full of tools, or just starting... post photos of your shop!  I'm sure there's quite a wide range of them out there.. I used to work in my attic, and now I'm in the garage.  Maybe the photos will give the rest of us ideas for tools, layout, lighting, etc. in our own shops!

I built this my self and I use it just about everyday now that I am no longer in workforce. I build lots of screen doors and beds.

I plan on retiring in 6 years. The plan is a dedicated shop and hopefully by then I will have the skill set to justify new tools. But for now the tools are better than the person using them...... It's fun to look at the photos of other shops. Lots of ideas.

I spent two years making the building for my shop and another six months making the benchs, cabinets and I still don't have everything where I want it.

It's not very a very big garage but it has the room I need to do what need. As you can see I don't make big stuff, This Picnic Table is about the biggest thing I have made.

As requested, This is a finished photo of my 24x32 foot shop. It has a Ptac A/C unit to cool and heat. At the last 10' of the shop are two rooms. One is a craft room and the other is a tool supply room. The garage door is big enough to drive a vehicle into the shop. It has telephone and no cable, yet. I ran my power from the house DP. The shop panel is rated at 50 amps. The Ptac is 220 VAC 30 amp. An outlet is also dedicated to a 220 VAC welder. All my GFCI breakers are at the panel and not at the outlets. My Fluorescent fixtures have protective sleeves covering the bulbs in case they accidentally get hit by a piece of flying wood. The walls and ceiling is made of wafer board. I chose this because of the moisture and easier to mount things to the walls. Also, If I have to remove one of the panels, I won't have sheet rock to clean up.

Check out my projects and you will see more than the sawdust. I am about to build another computer work station. The wife says the other one is to big and doesn't fit. I think it's really that she can't see me at my desk through the partition that serves as lighting and shelves. Right now I'm painting and laying down laminate flooring throughout the house.

OK, here's my entry. The shop is starting to take shape. I spend a lot of time out here.

I do not like your shop. It looks to neat and clean. I think my wife has been there. Ha, Ha, Mine is cluttered, messy. As long as I don't trip on anything, I feel good about it. Just kidding. Your shop looks swell. I think you ought to remove the turkey tails, as they will get full of dust and mites and it will destroy your trophies.

LOL. No, my wife hasn't been out there. The shop seldom looks this nice. Thought I better take a picture while it did. The turkey tails have survived many years of "garage" living and I still hunt them every year. If they have to be replaced, so be it.

Free Hand Guard (dust collection)

Hi.  I'm wondering if anyone has used the Woodpecker Free Hand Guard for dust collection on their bench top router table during pattern routing.  How effective is it?  It's adaptable to any router table.  Continue

New Kreg 720Pro

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.

I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.

First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…
