I have a approximately 20x30 space for my shop. I've been working on
designing where all the tools will go, and would like some feedback on the
design.

A couple notes:
- The grinder, sander, and drill press will be separated and placed along
the back wall. I just didn't bother adding stands.
- I plan on building a bench in the upper left hand corner (next to the
ladder), but haven't gotten around to modeling it yet.
- The "plywood storage" is a large assembly table with storage underneath.

Pretty pictures are for the women and their kitchens. This is a
workshop man. You don't design a workshop unless you plan on
installing drapes in the thing. Puckdropper???? You must play in a
girls league.

Tools have to be arranged for practical reasons not to look good on a
drawing. Put all the large tools on casters so that you can rearrange
things as required, if required.

Once you've made a few yards of sawdust with each of those machines
you'll know where they belong. As it sits now your probably going to
have to move something to cut up a sheet of plywood. That will be
after you have had to move the storage table so that you could get the
plywood out in the first place. Remember that a sheet of plywood is 4
x 8 but you still need a few extra feet of space to fit your ass in.
Where's the barrel for all the scrap pieces that are too good to throw
away?
