Popular Post rainjer Posted May 19, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 This is my small garage shop. It is about 11" X 22" (1/2 of a 2 car garage). As you can see space is it at a premium. All of my benches and tools are mobile allowing me to move things around as needed. My 2 benches are from Harbor Freight that I have modified to fit my use. They all happen to be the same height as my table saw so they double as as an out feed table. The table saw has a shop vac under the wing that is on a auto switch. I also have a mobile shop vac cart with a cyclone I use with the router, band saw. My next project is an air filter cart that my spindle sander and drill press (next upgrade). It will house a 3 speed furnace blower and also give me more storage. Jeremy 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chet Posted May 19, 2020 Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 Looks like some pretty good use of your space Jermey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnG Posted May 19, 2020 Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 Nice setup. Seeing shops like this make me realize how poorly I have mine laid out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhighlander Posted May 20, 2020 Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 Looks like a great place to work! Is the vac-based collector doing the job for you? I'm always looking for better DC... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking at The Dust Right mobile cart at Rockler. It is about the same footprint as what I have but is 4" and more CFM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coop Posted May 20, 2020 Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 I’m impressed, great looking shop, given the area. Like you, the foot print of my dc is way too big for the shop itself. I need to improve, revise or make do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chestnut Posted May 20, 2020 Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 I love those furnace blower carts. I lost an opportunity when i let my furnace get carted away with out me stealing the blower. I have a feeling that i could get one from the HVAC company pretty easily though. I like your shop. You look like you have some good organization which I'm kinda jealous of. I don't really enjoy making shop furniture or improving storage in my shop so my organization is not great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
