WARNING- THREAD DRIFT!
Man, can I ever agree with that. I have been slowly working on that in my shop. My problem has been figuring out where to put things so that
It's just to darn easy to lay it on the bench and let it pile up. Mine is getting better but I still haven't totally decided on where I want my machinery. So I have been hesitant about putting some thing on the wall.
- They are convenient
- Easy to get to
- Easy to put back up
For example I find at my shaper (which I love!!) I am always needeing two wrenches for changing the tooling. I need to find a place to keep the wrenches and tooling that meets the above list. But I am not sure if I am going to keep the shaper where it is or move it. So I do nothing but waste time trying to find where I put he wrenches.
On of the best things I have done was rebuild one of my benches.
Adding all these drawers was a big job but it has helped so much toward uncluttering my bench. But I still have things laying around that don't have a home and then when I need them I have to figure out where I left them. Thats time wasted.
Arnie, this could make a great thread by itself. Organizing your shop.

steve,
yep. that's why it was in the 'scrap box' and I figure that's perfect for something I'm going to plane/scrape and otherwise carve on. On your cabinet stock a wide belt or similar should help, no?
LOL, Steve!Where's the cord Al ...
