Well despite the weeks best efforts to sideline me on my task of cleaning up my workshop, I got it into some semblance of order. It is not quite where I want it to be yet, but it is a good start. I promised before and after photographs so here goes, I am starting with the after and then the before, I just hope that you don’t kick me off of the site once you see how bad I let my shop get.
And Now For The Before Pictures
Warning the photographs you are about to see may cause a nauseous feeling in the stongest of adults!

I was looking at the first pics, thinking “If that’s the before this guy really is OCD…” THEN I saw the other pictures and uttered a noise of shock… Now I don’t feel so bad…

Your last pictures are tame compared to my garage at the moment. You have a path, I dont even have one of those. Yours does look good though.

oh oh oh, I think I see it – it’s upside down, next to the monkey with the green and yellow striped shirt…
I thought we’re playing where’s waldo?
nice looking setup. if it only possible to have it stay like that on it’s own – that would be fantastic! but alas, the shop has a tendency of getting messed up everytime we go there… strange.

You really got that shop cleaned up. Do you hire out your organization services? I’m local, you know. Hope the dental work went well – three teeth, ouch!

Well actually Scott I am an Industrial Engineer by degree, so I guess you could say I have had some professional training in organization. I am always willing to lend a hand whenever it is needed, so a long answer to a short question, no my services are not for hire, but they are available free of charge for those in need. I am located in the Firethorne area of Katy.

Should’ve put an “LOL” after my comment. Wasn’t serious, but I appreciate the offer for help. Thanks!

Otto, the befores are what my workshop looks like towards the end of every project. When my haste to finish it overcomes my need for a clean and tidy work environment. I have to make it look like the tidied up pics before I can start a new project though.
