Don K.'s Workshop

Really nice Don. Great tools and a nice layout. Now you can really create some dust….............LOL

Don, you have a really nice shop in which to play. Those are some serious tools that you have in there. You have organized your shop well and the pegboard storage is a good idea. It provides a lot of storage capability, is relative inexpensive, and easy to install. I like your outfeed/ assembly table. That is a must have when cutting sheet goods or long pieces on your table saw. And using it for additional tool storage is a great idea. I would enjoy working in there.

Thanks for the pictures. I enjoyed touring your shop.

Hey don, that looks pretty good from here. No cars in there? :-)) or is that why all the sheels, to make the lil woman happy? Looks like you have plenty of room to make a serious pile of sawdust!

3fingerpat lol…it’s ok size wise until I have a really big project…then the size sucks. I am planning on a new shop next year.

cabinetmaster Thanks..I had better start making TONS of dust to pay for all the new toys I mean tools…or the little lady might get a little mad !!

Scott Thanks for the kind words !!

TopamaxSurvivor...lol…NO CARS !!!! (They have insurance…No way my tools are making room for a car because of a little bad weather) As I said, some of my projects get pretty big…so I have to be “Creative” as how I cut/assemble/finish etc etc etc…so things get moved around ALLOT !!

-- Don S.E. OK

Wow! that is a great looking shop. I hope you didn’t have to clean up just for us.

Wow there’s more iron in you shop than in Pittsburgh. Very nice machinery. Tool envy alert!

Mars72 Thanks…Believe me, it gets WRECKED at times. But every night before I quit, I try to clean it back up and put everything back in its place. This does not always happen..but when I don’t…it just makes it twice as hard the next day.

Bureaucrat Thanks…The basic lay out is the same…but I needed to do some serious upgrades for some of the jobs I was and am doing….so I just pulled the trigger and did it. Some of my old tools I stick in storage for my son for when he gets out of the military…and I sold some of them also.

-- Don S.E. OK

I mentioned I am saving many of my old tools for my son…I was in the storage looking around yesterday…He is going to have ALLOT more and better tools than I did when I started off.

-- Don S.E. OK

Hey Paul !!!!

They are still there…just on the wal above the door (The one wall I did not take pictures of)...To much money ???? Man I am as broke as they come….these things are a “Tax write off” lol.

-- Don S.E. OK

Don’s eloquent ever-lasting statement “saving my old tools for my son” grabs me like no other.
