Just adding images as shop projects are finished and the shop gets more organized!
I have a fake 3-car garage… A 2 car door and what they call a “tandem” on one side. The back portion is the primary location of my tools and shop space – So a one-car garage space that spills over. Major power tools are a Craftsman Tablesaw with a Vega Fence, 11” Magna Band saw, Drill Press, HF Dust Collector, 12” generic Sliding compound Miter saw and 12” DeWalt RAS, Shopsmith Clone, Chinesium Lathe, Built-in router table plus a stand-alone with an Incra jig, (Yes that’s a Matthias Wandel box joint jig)
Major Handtools – #1 of course is my semi-Nicholson style bench
saws… Disston D7 Rip, D12 Crosscut, Various USA/British panel saws, 14” Disston D4 and Warranted Superior Tenon saws, 12” WS Carcass saw, Veritas dovetail saw, J&S Taylor Dovetail saw (18th century Sheffield)
Bench Planes – 3,4,4 1/2, 5, 605, 7, Sargent 424 (8)
Plough, grooving, rabbet, molding – Stanley 45, 78, Various wooden molding and fillister planes
Chisels… Pfeil and Woodriver
Here are a couple of storage areas along the wall of the parking area… this includes the SS clone which fits in almost no space.

Thanks Mike, The Vega is nice and I find myself using the fine adjustment quite often. It makes my 1954 Craftsman saw into a pretty accurate and modern setup. I’ll probably post some follow-up photos of my table-saw setup at some point.

Thanks, it is definitely improving over time. Actually, I have probably 30+ F style clamps to the right of my workbench (boring/messy storage as you can see by the pic – and the window makes picture taking tough
)... I usually have enough… but never truly right?

Looks great Tim! A wonderful spot to work and to sit and muse when you choose to do so. :)
