We started this reno in April. I'm ecstatic to have finally got to the end of my workroom. What an interesting time it's been trying to keep up cash flow and production while simultaneously making the shop unusable for periods of time. Anyway, the hard stuff is behind us, now I can get to the fiddly bits of finding proper places for all the little things instead of just shoving them from one bench to the next.
Kickin' bandsaw...
Kickin' dust collector to clean up after it...
Bid holding rack for upcoming builds...
Tablesaw ducted in and on sliders to make it accessible...
Shelf for bodies, above which there is nothing to fall...
Main workbench with collapsible extension for fitting necks...
New solid and larger bench with the vise which will make neck carving life easier...underneath is compartmentalized storage slits for frames in the mold...
And a smaller 10" bandsaw for cutting out tops, backs, brace ends etc. FWIW, this ROK brand makes a really great little saw. Only 1/3 hp, but cut through 4" neck blanks easier than the 1hp General 14" which it replaced. A right proper bandsaw, not a cheap piece of junk. If you're in the market for a wee saw, well worth the 300$...
And last but not least, double thickness shop mats everywhere.
Time to clear out the garage and start thinking about the CNC:)
