Some of you already saw it.
No high end equipment( except may be for my planes).
My equipment is mostly HF and Ridig, for the moment this is “good enough ” for me.
I might upgrade as needed later.
I still have to finish the dust collection with a cartridge filter on the dust collector and a cyclone then the piping.
Here is my shop
I shall had a picture of my (just finished) slider miter saw bench later today.
So you will not have to guess and you not have to ask , I have about $30,000.00 invested so far in this shop, crazy no?
I built it from from ground up.
The shop is 720sqft, fully insulated with A/C.
I did most of it myself except for the building itself, the insulation and the dry walls.
I have a 200Volts/100 Amps circuit in the shop
I am blessed and very happy to have such a nice shop!
May I use it to glorify my Lord.

It really looks great. Is it a stand alone shop? Or is it attached to the house?

Bert, this looks like a shop that would be fun to work in. It is spacious, well organized with quite a bit of natural light in there. And you have put together a nice collection of tools.
Thanks for the tour.

I really like the space you have there. In my dream shop I would love to not have concrete floors, I stand on them all day at and its hard your body plus it always seems cold to me. Good luck with your new project!

A great looking shop. Why is the wood stove up on little blocks of wood?

Very nice shop Bert.
One question though, what are those brick size blocks, wrapped in plastic, stacked in your lumber storage area?
