I finally rearranged my garage workshop and it is the most room I have had yet. I got a bunch of photos in my album.

If you would like to see what I build out of my shop you can go to the website below and I have all my projects and photos as they were built. I do not build for a living but this is my hobby so be gentle!

Nice shop, the most hardcore part of that entire shop that I have never seen before is routing the dust collection piping under the cement.

I also think that custom cabinet for the hand tool cases is very detail oriented.

Wow, impressive! I too have a gargw shop....I never thought of facing the table saw out the door. Your weather must be alot better than mine!

Still it is cool and looks like it affords you some room.

I would love to have the dust collector lines to run under like that but would be afraid to cut the concrete out to do it.

Nice work space. Any machinery you still need/want? ;)

Nice setup, great machines. The lines run under the concrete is amazing... I am pretty sure you are in the rare minority on that one. Most guys or gals that do in floor electrical or DC plumbing do it on new build outs. It looks like yours was an existing building...

Some Great equipment there too.... Hope you are putting it to good use!

Nice shop. I like how you can get so many tools in a small area and still have organization.... this makes organization a necessity.

I really hate making this post since it in no means is intended to be a killjoy but did you kick around the idea of running 6" ducting under the concrete since it looks like you went through the work of sawing it and re-pouring? I guess a good reason is that the 4" ducting would help insure no piles develop...

Looks good. Comment on the Grizzly workbench. I'm curious too. I feel like it would just be so much easier to buy than to build in this case. I don't like making my own tools, typically. I feel like I do enough of that...

And I thought I had crammed a lot of tools in my garage. I see i still have much more to do to get the amount of tools in mine as you have in yours.

I would love to have the dust collector lines to run under like that but would be afraid to cut the concrete out to do it.I ran both DC and power under the slab to my jointer and table saw. Nothing to be afraid of....cut the concrete, run the pipe...eredo the concrete. Rented a walk behind concrete saw and jackhammer for a half day...about $70.
