Shop Description:
I’ve been a woodworker for years (my dad has a nice shop), but recently decided to set up a shop of my own in my 12 x 24 garage, which I’m sharing with yard tools, bikes, and camping gear. So far I have a table saw and a planer, a few smaller hand-held power tools, and a few hand tools–it’s a good start (and there’s not a lot of space for much more). I like the window next to the workbench, and even though there’s no heat or A/C, I love to be in there.
