Hey Joe,
Sweet looking shop with lots of cool Iron to use…well done.

Joe, way to go, that is looking good, Steve in Oregon

-- Steve in Oregon,

Joe, this is a nice looking shop that you have to work in. I have always thought that having a stand alone shop is the way to go. And putting your dust collector in a separate building is a good idea too, especially for controlling the noise. The shop looks to be pretty well organized and mobilizing our power tools is a necessity for those of us with smaller shops.

Thanks for the pictures. I enjoyed touring your shop.

Joe, you have a wonderful shop. I love the building and what you have done with it. You’ve got a great dust system and lots of nice tools and equipment. Congratulations on a job well done.

I love remodels like that! You sure took that diamond in the rough and polished it up!

Hey! I like what you have done – a great job of making the best use of a small space. I wouldn’t be surprised if there had been a horse in there way back when.

I’m not sure about horses but I found some very old NJ license plates used to hold shelves from the 20’s.

Thanks 4 the tour Joe.
Looks like you have done a great job remodeling your shop.
I wish I had your arsenal of Jet machines.
Keep up the great woodwork and welcome to Lumberjocks too.

Great job on saving the old structure :) I love to see things revived and re-used to a different function and it looks like your shop is going to be great and so are the projects out of it :)

Good to see the old building used. You’ve turned it into a nice space.

-- Bruce from Central New York...now, if you'll pardon me, I have some sawdust to make.

Nice looking shop….you have brought it a long way…

by the way, I collect license plates, if you’d like to chat.
I’m always in the market for older plates. Send me a private email if you have any you’d like to part with.
Thanks!

Man, you brought that building back from the dead. It looks alive and well….

-- mike...............

That’s really taking shape! Your before photo is a really good reference to how far along you have come with this project. That poor thing looked like it needed a bulldozer and complete rebuild, but you really brought it back to life!

Good tool selection too!
