Getting ready to retire

Had to dismantal the workshop of a very clever craftsman/engineer. Twas a sad job indeed.

I can say that he carefully fit thing together in interesting stands and the like, in order to minimize space used. Tucking this under that, the other between, turned thusly.

He put many hours into the design of each storage compartment/rack/thingie, but it worked superbly.

As an example, a wall mounted socket to hold the jig saw would have included pull out storage bins in the saw loop, and around the base. Not an inch would have been allowed unused.

Why not flip them over the support tubes of the shopsmith? I also love to use hard drive magnets(rare earth) and velcro to hang things around the shop.

[quote="wrmnfzy"]I'll be retiring soon and plan on getting back in the workshop on a regular basis. QUOTE]

Just retiring, and you plan on having time to get back into the shop???

Bwahahahahahahahaha

Anyone else newly retired here who has found all this extra time to spend in the shop?
