Setting Up Shop
I've been able to move everything in the picture, using my trusty handcart. The only thing left, is to move the StreetRunner over,
and a drill press, that weighs a couple hundred pounds. (I will be getting help to move that)
I only had my imagination, as to how to set up the shop. Reality quickly set in and some things just didn't fit as thought.
So I've put everything in 'temporary', so I know what will fit where, and how the 'work flow', is most efficient.
Soon things will have to be moved out from the walls, and insulation, and pegboard put up.
I can warm it up well enough, with my propane heaters, but cooling in our summer heat, is another matter.
My other sheds are fully insulated, and the evaporator cooler just makes it, 'ok' but not real comfortable.
But that is only in a 120 +/- square foot size, not 384
Cabinets come from our kitchen remodel. The dotted cabinets, come via remodel, of a Las Vegas hotel, by way of the kids, (and will be painted)
I will be using those cabinets for storing all my power hand tools.
If you notice the red Budweiser cans in the background, they were 'donated', to the StreetRunner build, for the faux carburetor setup.
I don't drink beer, though I have enjoyed a good ale, at '
The Fox', in Finchingfield, Essex, while I lived there.
Need ramps to roll in or out anything of size. two (8' x 2" x 10") on the back wall.
The small propane heater is great for maintaining warmth, but I use the orange blower model (in the back),
for getting the shop quick heated, when the temp is down near the 30's.
I learned from my previous wiring in the old sheds. I placed the outlets too low, and they were always hard to get to.
This time I mounted them at 5'.
Except for the cabinets, band saw, and drill press, everything is on wheels, so I'm able to have fluctuating work space, as needed.
