Shop Tour
I decided to build up a metal shop in my basement after attempting to make a cell phone holder for my Audi A3. The project involved making a shaped plate out of 1/16" plastic which would be held onto the front console by the air vents (see more about this in the 'Projects' menu item). The shape was simple enough to do with a Dremel but soon turned to disaster; and frustration turned to action.
Time for a shop! It started out in Sept 2014 with some general purchases of a drill press, tool box, etc but quickly moved into more serious effort once a taste of what can be accomplished in a small shop dawned on me. My overall working space is approximately 18'x13' with another adjacent area for storage of ~15'x13'. The room is the basement and has a direct door into the garage which is nice for moving equipment into the area. |
That's about it. Doesn't look like much but gets the job done so far. Of course each project seems to add one or two more pieces. I'll post a list of the items including what's in the tool boxes with purchase location and price. You'll see a CNC Router in the picture above/left which you can view more of from the menu "CNC Router Build' - have a look and leave a comment. |
