I have since remodeled the old building, brought it back to a hopefully
usable life, and the time is nigh to move the equipment back on
premises. While it will be good to get my beloved shop back where I can
walk out the back door on a whim again, the downside is a loss of about
25% shop space from the temporary quarters ... ouch!

In preparation for the move, I've been spending weekends and spare time
endeavoring to make the newly renovated building looking like a shop
again, along with trying to organize it to make best use of limited space.

The first step was to organize some storage space, storage that will
hopefully be more efficient, less prone to leaving things laying about,
and less subject to being sawdust covered in relatively cramped quarters.

Although the cobbler's kid is the last to have shoes, getting a start on
it so far:

... more to come as things develop. Just remember, it's just a shop, not
a high dollar kitchen.



Looking good! Why no pictures of the "other side of the shop"? LOL

Concerning the kitchen comment, surely there is a spot in there to place
a Flavia machine in an other wise unused space. And couldn't you set up
an adapter to your router table to power your blender bowl for
Margaritas? ;~)
