My shop is still a work in progress, and somewhat cleaner than the last photos I uploaded.
The router table was something I threw together quickly for my 3.5 HP craftsman router. I plan on building a new one once I get the time/money to purchase the lumber. I think I am going to go with similar one to Norm Abrams from NYW.
The Tablesaw is a recent upgrade I purchased. It is the Ridgid 3650 which I got for a great deal at HD. It is a much better saw than the old Craftsman benchtop saw I used to have.
The Penn State Industries Lathe, I purchased a while back to turn small items (pens) and it has done well since I have had it. It is sitting on a table I threw together with 2×4 and a piece of 3/4” ply for the top.
My Ryobi Drill Press was purchased shortly after the lathe, and is sitting on a stand I threw together which has my drill bit boxes on slides readily accessible when I need them.
The back wall I use to store all my hand tools, sandpaper, finishing supplies etc… It is very disorganized at this moment, but I intend to get some small shop cabinets built soon to house the bulk of it.

Looks very workable. You just need to inch your wife out a little everyday. Soon she won’t even realize she doesn’t park under roof. You’re in Southern Cal anyway, she should park outside in the interest of your man-space. Thanks for the pics. Good luck.

You have a nice start on your shop and good luck with moving your wife out of HER space. I am just glad that we added a third garage in the basement when we built our house. I converted that space into my shop because I can tell you without a doubt that I would be out in the weather before my wife would give up her side of the upper garage for my shop needs. :)
You have some nice tools to play with as well and I see a lot of potential in your shop space.
Thanks for the pictures. I enjoyed visiting your shop. Keep us posted on any updates as well.

For operation remove wife from man space tell her that sawdust eats the paint from the inside out. Or even better tell her that her car will get better gas mileage if she parks out side since she will be 10 feet closer to where she has to go.
