John;

Thanks for the well done shop tour. You have a great layout to be creative with. Have the same Rikon bandsaw and it is one of my most used tools after my table saw.

Looking forward to more projects from this excellent shop.

Hi John, Looks like a well equipped and nicely organized shop. I especially like the french cleats. I can imagine you will get a lot of use out of them. Thanks for the tour!

....Moving on....

Well I finally got my shop setup somewhat like I wanted…..now it is time to move. SWMBO and I built a new house and start moving in this weekend. Like my current shop, the new one will be in the basement. I will have windows and a walk out access that will make it feel less like a dungeon. The downside (or upside, depending on how you look at it) is that it is a completely clean slate, no framed walls, now outlets, no nothing. I look at my current shop as a test run for my next (hopefully final) shop. I learned a lot about what I like and do not like so I should be in good shape and excited to get to work.

I will be blogging about the progress over the course of the year. The space is approximately 20' x 30'

New space, new shop, is always fun to setup.

Congratulations on your new home John. I'm sure you will make an even better shop based on what you've learned from the old one. That said, a shop is never optimal as most of us find new woodworking interests and we have to constantly alter our shops to keep up with the changing needs.
