My Workshop

My workshop or garage that never was


Footings being built April 2005


The roof going on


Begining of June waiting for the doors & floor to go in, but after a problem with the floor it would be end of August before it was finished (Bloody Cornish Builders).

Anyway inside walled off separate to the main workshop is my storage cupboards for glue, paints, finishes, screws, fastners, dowels, biscuits etc.

West View, the door leads to the storage room

Since the above pics were taken I have had a little shift around or should I say a major shift around. :D
The reason is I needed to find a home for my set of Blue Spruce paring chisels, this in turn meant my bench needed shifting. Here are some pics showing the latest upheaval.

My six new Blue Spruce paring chisels & my Lie Nielsen set of bevel chisel in their new home.

So I needed to move the bench underneath the cabinets

My Stanley planes all live in the right hand cabinet

But before I did that I had to move my DW712 saw bench and cupboards to a new home which meant I had to move this as well

So with everything shifted this is what it now looks like.

Mobile Clamp Stand, I really didn’t think it would be so heavy loaded up and I think I should have got bigger castors. :)

jet 22-44 sander

New Cabinet for hand tools

But with those machines out of the way I don’t seem to have made much room. :)

    Did you sketch the machines?

    No I download all, searching 3D Warehouse in the file menu. I couldn’t find a morticer so I used a model of a pillar drill and modified it to look like a Sedgwick 571.
