I wrote in an earlier post about 2 weeks ago that the storage unit complex that I have my little shop on wheels had a fire,and I had to move while they gut it to repair the damage.
I had since found another unit on the far end of the place that they said I could hook into the electricity and use an unmarked section of the parking lot about 10 feet away.
It was a lot of work,but I got all moved in yesterday & this morning,and it turned out nicer than I thought.
I got creative trying to maximize space,and a big improvement is I now have a totally bare workbench space to work on,by getting a shelf unit that my tool box can be on,yet the chair can come out and go in easily.
So i timed it...5 minutes to set up/put away.Everything rolls in just 1 way,in order to get it to all fit.
A big improvement is wood storage.If I stand on my bench,I can line up blocks of wood on this big steel beam.I used some j-hooks,and chain to hang a rack to hold wood.Eventually I'm going to improve that by doing a long one on the other wall.The chain hanging works nice,as it can't leave any marks on the tin walls.
So the best part is that I did not have to get rid of anything,and it's better organized than before.
I can't wait to get back in there to finish up the batch of pens that are half done!
Thanks,
Steve
