Small Garage Storage - My Drill Press and Grinder Stand

Always_Thinkin · Nov 24, 2016

All,

Good evening. I wanted to share with you another project that i recently finished for my downsized garage. Below are links to my folding workbench and power tool tower.

The drill press was too heavy to store in my power tool tower so i drew up and built a drill press stand with a fold-a-way grinder. I had enough room to fit everything between my two garage doors. I am pretty happy with it. Let me know if anyone has questions.

Yup ... me too !!

Nice! I'd be interested to hear details on the connection point where the grinder table pivots.

That is very nice Al. Doesn't take a very big footprint and fits nicely in that space.

Neat idea - makes great use of the space.

Our ideas of a small garage differ though,
as I'd consider anything larger than a single garage, to be LARGE!

Anyhow, well done

Basher,

I agree with you on what a small garage is. However, the ideas i ran across and built were for "small garages". While i don't have a small garage compared to others, i still needed these small garage ideas. That way I could still be able to park both of my cars in the garage during the winter, here in Illinois.

If I had the wallspace for it I'd do the same!
