Hello Everyone, I know some of us have shown pictures of our shops from time to time, but sometimes our shops can look overwhelming to a new woodworker.
So I thought I would show where I started and what I have now...this has been a few years in the making now, And I would love to see where you all started and where you are now...please share if you can
Here you can see my amazing setup, a $100 plastic Craftsman table saw with a free miter saw and planer sitting on a folding table. And in the background, you can see my 60-year-old also free drill press. I did not even have a lathe yet
Now my shop is 30 feet square thats, 9 meter square for our overseas freinds, and it is still a work in progress.
From one side you can see I have a Paulk workstation in the center with my Jet table saw built in (I dont have a cabinet saw yet). On the back wall I have a 18" Jet bandsaw and a benchtop Jet drillpress. On the right side by the car door, I have a 16" planer and a 6" jointer, and on the right I have a dewalt scroll saw with an older Jet 10x14 lathe.
From the other direction I built a workbench out of two toolboxes with a Makita miter saw in between. On the left side you can see an old drum sander I am trying to fix, and on the right is a small stabilization setup and a 24" square cnc.
And last but not least what everyone loves to see in this group my Lathe, I went with the Harvey T40 Lathe, I love it and I really dont need anything bigger. It is also the only tool in my entire shop I bought new, evertyhing else I found second hand.
And the drawers are all organized the way I like them, the top one is turning tools then below that is centers and drives, and below that is chucks and so on
For now that is all I can think of, I cant wait to see where some of you started.
