After years of clamps in corners and nooks and crannys, finally finished organizing them this weekend.I call it the "Wall of Bessey's".

Now if I can just get the rest of the shop organized.

Gee ... I'd say hyper-organizing them! That looks like a Bessey store display room or something. :eek:

(BTW ... I see a corner, but no nooks or crannys. I guess that's where you're keeping the rest of the stuff that needs to be organized? :rolleyes:)
 
General arrangement of the tools, but not connected to power or dust collection. The other half of the space has the workbench, RAS, 16" jointer, 5HP cyclone and other tools.

HOLY COW ROB:eek: That is one incredible shop:thumb: Powermatic and Bessy need to use your shop in their ads AND give you royalties. WOW that is gotta be one great place to do your woodworking:thumb:
 
Clean? no choice.

When I get home from the day job and go out after dinner (supper), the LOML comes out to see what's being worked on and always gets the broom and dust pan out and sweeps up the piles shavings.

She will even go into the shop while I am at work during the day and sweep up. We both have sinus problems, so she is really into preventitive care. :thumb:

Beautiful. Just a really great showcase for some fine tools. The long mustard yellow fixture that runs along the wall that the clamps are setting on; is that a bulkhead or raceway for plumbing and electrical? Shallow drawers? I checked older threads but didn't find this. Just curious (of course) and once again, beautiful workspace.
 
The knee wall is for running electrical and air lines. Attached is a cross section of the knee wall.
