    Workshop overhauled

    In the past 6 weeks I have sold some of my machines that I dont use often enough and I have decided to go separate, I sold my combination machine and bought separates to replace the combination - my workload has changed into production heavy and the combination machine can not keep up with the work.

    What I havnt thought about thoroughly when I made the decision to go separate was the amount of ducting and iterations of the ducting required - this took me over 2 weeks (I have a daytime job and I can only do this after 5 and half days on the weekends), and a minor increase in the 3 phase electrical power point

    anyhow, here are the before and after....

    Interesting transformation and yea...you added a few ports when you went to separates! Making a change like that isn't trivial, but it sounds like you had a very good reason to do so..."business is good".

    The most expensive tool is the one you buy "cheaply" and often...

    Thanks Jim, these minor tweaks are hard to notice but it was costly... I would like to think the business is good but its probably my labour is too cheap lol

    Great space and tools.

    I thought I had overhauled my workshop when I repainted it and moved a couple tools around ...... LOL

    that still qualifies as an overhaul! lol

    I cant imagine repainting my workshop... if I do I might repaint some tools pink though, easy to spot and give them a bit of character lol
