I've been a member of this forum for almost 2 years and just now feel proud enough to even post my shop. Its a two bay shop with an office in between both doors. I'll get an exterior picture up soon. I have only finished one side so bear with me as I get the other side up to par!


Here is what I had when I started...​

Started framing out the walls to have a good work surface...​

First wall sections up. Benches going in...​

I built my work benches with a pocket hole jig for a clean look...​

Mdf work surface...​

Edge banding on the main bench...​

Just an interesting view that I shot. The cabinets are up but no face frame or doors on yet.​

Old computer area. Unused space that needed lots of attention.​
IMG_0924.jpg







Built a custom workbench/storage area for the chain saws and fuel.​
IMG_0939.jpg







Organized all my landscape/lawn tools.​

So much more left considering that is only half the shop should be an interesting next few weeks as I start tackling it and finished up the small details on this side.

Nice job so far and will be watching for updates. One question, did you not put any insulation in?

BTW...welcome to the board

Terrific job, looks great. Getting things organized always makes me feel 100% better. BTW... I love the air cooled PC.

Nice job! You gotta love pocket hole jigs. I try to use mine wherever/whenever I can. Do you have the Kreg jig?

Yes, I have the Kreg master set and I have bought tons of accessories like the multi-tool, straight cut, and various kreg clamps. The smaller bench next to the drill press is my jig bench.

I have one too, and am constantly amazed at the strength of the joints!

Nice work and ideas. Did you insulate it?
Yes, I did up to where I've paneled. Won't be of much use since the ceiling isn't insulated. I had an army tent wood stove donated and have yet to figure if I can make it work with what I've got.

It just makes me want to build stuff all the time. I have two projects for it right now.
