Shop setup

(1/2) > >>

Brass_Machine:
Since I have moved, I have been trying to setup my new shop. I have a small unpowered 10'x20' garage. Not really worried about the unpowered part, there are outside plugs very close and I have plans to buy a decent generator soon.

I know we have done this before, but let's do it again... Ideas for storage, benches etc... I would like to make use of the room as best as possible..

So, hit me with it. What are you guys doing?

I was very fortunate in that my parents were getting a new kitchen installed, and I got the old one free (nothing wrong with it), it works pretty good for me.

I bought some of these for the workshop. Each unit comes with at least three adjustable shelves.

Eric..

I think its just really cheaper just to go to Home Depot and purchase 2x4 and boards for your benches, you get what you want and really having it taylor made for you will last over time with no regrets in the future.

Consider Goodwill stores for stuff like shelving and materials i have made a killing doing that plus keep and eye open for local auctions and free stuff from Craigs List.  Anthony....

Depaugie:
Make several small benches -mobile.
So you can clean under & behind them also when that vital part flys into the 'vanishing space', you might just find it.
If you are moving, they can come with you.
When you need to work on a larger project, you can rearrange them to suit.
Just fix your vice to solid ground, not your benches
