The white cupboards store my secret passion, but I will be doing a separate post on that in a few days time. Keep watching......

Amateur taxidermy?

Bit different to a couple of years ago...lots more heavy machinery - Rob

Matt - sorry, I thought you were referring to the earlier post.

I've only found one picture of what used to be in the cabinet

So what's in it now...my guess is it's full of Holtey's - Rob

BB - the Record router table is great, but it takes up a lot of space. I was going to build a table into the side extension of the t/s, but I couldn't be bothered in the end. I am going to build an enclosed cabinet for the r/t and do away with the open base - this should give extra bit storage, and cut down on noise.

Superunknown - the SM is a Fox.

Rob - Sorry, no Holteys. As for the additional cast iron, check out my signature line......

Cheers

Not bad, Karl. Still much better organised than my workshop. :wink:

I assume you don't do many large, fitted units? I can't see where you'd find the space to dry-assemble them.

Do you lose much time having to drag machines out to use them? It looks as though you they're all reasonably laid out so that, for example, you don't have to move anything else to get to your table saw?

One o the best garage workshops Ive seen. Certainly better than the one I used to have in the old house.

I took the metal door off and replaced with a three paneled folding door. The right hand one opened inwards. The centre door folded back on to the left hand which opened outwards. This made the garage secure and was tested by the local scroats and stood up.

That's what the conservatory is for!

Don't really lose much time. Pretty much any machine can be wheeled into position, set-up and d/x connected in a couple of minutes. Do the job you need, then a couple of minutes to put it back. So if, for example, you've got a batch of work to do on the SM, adding 5 mins for wheeling it in and out of position isn't a big deal.

It's all about trade-offs. If you want to have that many tools in such a small space you have to keep the 'shop tidy or you grind to a halt.
