Extensive rot was found in supporting timbers in two corners of the roof which turned a big day redecking into a exhausting day trying to close in and temp. waterproof.
the list of other jobs include laying floor, insulating cladding and lining the walls. A compleat rewire with additional lights. Forming a doorway to store/ dust extraction room. constructing a mitre saw stand, powertool stand, mobile assembly table (old dining table extendable) and a mobile stand for disc sander. also lots of rearranging of the layout etc.The roof was finally proofed by a local firm as this is a specialist job. So its just some painting thats required now.
 
The table saw and wood storage is in the garage i have dust extraction and compressed air piped to both sites this helps to give workshop space but you do find yourself going back and to getting tools and marking out equipment.having everything on wheels also saves lots of space and the mitre saw stand saves using a wall length just for it.
 
It looks like there's a lot going on in there and also that you've organised your space very well indeed. A great improvement! :)

Looks like you also have the Fox Morticer and you've added something to your fence - do you have any other photo's of this? I'm trying to find a solution to my fence and I just wondered what you've done?
 
OPJ
Its just a length of ply fixed to the metal fence with two bolts paper is used to shim it straight. If the holddown is to high use a block of wood between it and the job.
I use a trend depth gauge to help me square the cutter to the fence.
