I am in the process of doing up and moving into a new house. While the house is a bit of a wreck I have somehow mange to sort most of the workshop out :twisted: . I have explained to the wife that I can't do any work in the house without it.
Heres the general shot of the garage. It about a car and 3/4's width and its a little damp but I have put some seal strips on the door and added a dehumifier.
I made up some cupboards to store stuff neatly, I intend to put doors on but I havn't had chance to yet.
Heres my router table and some more storage. Up the stairs leads to my timber store which is some shelves above the stairs.
Heres my bench, it took me 11/2 days to build which I was well chuffed with. It is a pine base from offcuts from my loft room and a top of two fire doors and a sheet of mdf. The sides are lipped with a beech worktop offcut from ikea. The base is constructed with drawbored tenons which is such a simple method of joining things i can'y believe I have not used it before. The vice jaws are not finished yet and I need to add all the dog holes. It is based on the Roubo design but I just wanted a thick top and legs to attach big stuff too.
This is my tool chest. It was copied from a design in fine woodworking and is pocket hole screws and is very basic. The chisel holders are a bit naff but it was quick to make. I will be improving it.
Some dust extraction and bandsaw.
Here is my baby, My hammer b3 saw spindle.
I am looking forward to some quality time in here. Just got to make the skirting and doors for the house.
