Pics of everyones garage/workbench setup

[Micscience]

Hi, I know there is a picture thread of tool boxes however I was hoping to see every ones work bench setup or working area. How it is organized or planned out and the creativity behind your setup. To me that is the essence of Garage Journal. I know there is a garage gallery but the photos are all scattered in the build however If there is a thread already made like this please point me in the right direction if not it would be great to see some of the Journal members work bench/shop setups if you don't mind.

RatDoggy, is that cart a dingo? It looks like the cage of the cart I had as a kid; brings back memories.

Yes it is, with an 8HP engine. It scares me how fast it can go

You mean like this mess. To left is 4x4 metal table full of junk. The two in front are work table then desk. Works good in my 40x30 metal building

^ not a bad setup at all, i like the functionality of it. commonly used tools out in the open, specialty in the drawers, easily visible from anywhere. and looks good while it stays functional

Im still working on mine. Need counter top, peg board, ect... These were old reclaimed cabinets from my house garage. They were in a "L" shape, & i made them straight. They were lightly built. So, I beefed them up a little. The top cabinets I got from auction at two diffent schools.
This area is for my fire department theme. I'll soon also have "stuff" reflecting my mechanical background located behind my two post lift.
The finnish work is going slow, do to vacation time & money.....

HSpencer.....I see you've got an old Cman table saw like mine (nice outfeed setup); moreover, I see you have the original fence on it. Mine has the original as well. Even tho all I've ever heard about those fences has been bad, mine's solid and spot-on. Once you tear them apart and clean them up they run really smooth and lock up easy. Nice to see another original piece. Here's mine:

Some times it hard to find the older threads. Here's the one I started about a year ago.
What's your workbench look like?

That's my wife playing the lovely Vanna White look-a-like.

HSpencer that is a nice setup. It looks like it wouldn't be to hard to clean the saw dust from table saw since the bench is in the middle. Jeffmoss thanks for the link now I have a lot of pics to view.

Mine is a nine inch direct drive. It is rather rare and was a promo saw I bought in around 1975. The nine inch models were phased out afterwards, changed to cast iron tables and belt drives.
Mine is true on in every way. I took it from a four legged stand it came with and used a "cabinet saw" style stand, stealing the four legged one for my rehabbed and reinvented router table you can see in my photo above.
I am enclosing a photo of my (handed down from dad), 1962 Sears (not craftsman) table saw (7"), which is even a better saw than my 9". With a new carbide thin blade, I would take it to a plywood cuttin' contest.

Thanks, yes the clean up goes well in there. Especially when I roll most tools outside to cut, plane, or sand. This wall mounted vac sure helps.

Here's mine. The other garage bay is empty unless I'm working on something. Bunch of rakes and shovels and such hanging on the wall, but I didn't take any pictures.
