Ok guys here's my workshop, 2250 sq ft , built about three years ago, we were in a converted barn prior to this, this building is all triple insulated and the white interior keeps it nice and bright.
It portrays a great image when we bring clients to see their furniture
The building has nice big roller shutters, forklifts get in no problem. We have two sign written vans, both Vito's bought last year as a bit of a tax dodge.
The dog is Billy, bit of a part timer to be honest
2.6m cut, Robland saw, not the greatest of quality but good enough
1 metre wide speed sander, 8hp, best bit of kit in the unit, £9000 well spent
3metre spray booth, extracted through the back with a 3kw fan
The edgebander, nice bit of kit, saves huge amounts of time
Extraction system is a Fercell 20 bag system, 8hp, we used to have 3 small ones but this is much better, steel ducting system
Couple of spindle moulders both about 5hp, cast iron, can't be beaten for reliability and price. Having 2 spindles means I can set them up to run doors, one doing the profile the other the scribe and I don't have to keep breaking them down.
Multico rip saw, 4hp
16" overhander and thicknesser, sedwick, not a bad bit of kit but would be so much better if the outfeed table could be raised and lowered
Edge sander, very useful, shoot all the doors in with this
Timber rack, useful way of storing timber in a small space
Picture of all the ducting
Panel storage with sanding belts stored above
For me its the perfect workshop, don't really need much more equipment, next purchase will be to upgrade the panel saw.
We also want to take the unit next door when it becomes available to convert it into a showroom.
