You have a fantastic work area, Gene. You appear to have about the same amount of space as I do but you are using it much more efficiently. Man, oh man - 22 drawers. Boy could I put a lot of stuff in there.

What catches my eye is all that open floor space and that nearly empty (uncluttered) work bench.

Please, Do a couple shots of your router table setup.

N-i-c-e I will have to agree with Dusty. Sure would be nice to have 22 drawers.

The shop is 40X32 with two 16X10 wood storage areas attached on the outside.
I bought an open sided 20X32 wooden structure, moved it to the homestead and added the rest to it.

My next project is to make egg crates for those drawers ala Nick's video.

I cleaned up before I took the pictures. The floor isn't always so "open".

I'll post some of the router table later. Reible will recognize it.

Did you build the 22 drawers from scratch?

Now there is a well organized shop. I really love the drawers also. I know understand the need for them. I have just shelves and everything that is in the shelves gets dusty continually. I need to rethink my layout. Thank you for sharing you shop. Very nice work
