I have set up several shops by using scale cut outs including required in and outfeed areas. I have had everything from a 2 car garage up to a 15,000 sq foot cabinet shop. I am now retired and have a very small hobby shop. I no longer build cabinets but rather a lot of small projects and a lot f lathe work. The latest shop is an old single car garage of 11x22' it was definitely the most challenging shoot to set up. Table top heights were critical. Most of the pieces I use are only about 2' although of course there are times I have longer work. The primary tools I use are lathe, bandsaw, table saw, miter box, planer, joiner, spindle sander and stationary 6x48 belt sander, grinders for sharpening and buffing station, 1x30 belt sander, and more. I can use every tool for pieces in the 2' range without moving a single thing. Larger tools are all on wheels so easy to move if needed. It has turned out to be a very efficient one man shop. I have often advised others who may be struggling with shop layout, or I see their shop and it needs a lot of work on layout, to use a scale drawing including all tools and required workspace and the smaller the shop the more important elevations become. By paying attention to elevations it will allow you to work over the top of other tools and even to use the top of the other tools as potential work support and for outfeed. I have several of your tools and enjoy all of them.
I have a 96 sq.ft. workshop. Not much room so i built my mobile workbench to act as my out feed table to my benchsaw and table thicknesser which are also mobile. Im currently adapting my work bench so it will have a router table section. Improvise, adapt, overcome!!
This is awesome!! I'm building a house (they just started cutting the 1200 ft long driveway last week) and it will have a 16'x33' woodworking shop. I've been trying to use Sketchup (long learning curve) to design my shop and failing. This old school method of layout is exactly what I needed. I'll be meeting with my electrician in about a month to go over where all the electrical goes, and I kept agonizing over getting it right for my tools. Knowing I put the 240 volt outlets in the right spot, especially the one in the floor for my table saw (getting a SawStop) is important to me. Being on a slab you've only got one chance (unless I wanted to tear up the concrete) to get my floor connection done right. Thanks for putting this out, and thanks for the content of your video's. I became a subscriber about 6 months ago and love how you teach the skills you know. I did some woodworking about 15 years ago, and now that I'm retired I'm looking forward to getting back into this, and passing my knowledge on to my 8 grandkids.
TheSketchUpEssentials got me started - it sucks to learn without help but once you've been set on the right track it quickly starts making sense! Here's Pt. 1 of their SketchUp For Woodworkers series: th-cam.com/video/u80grW1zjOw/w-d-xo.html
i super recommend you put channels in the slab that have metal covers. then, you can string permanent wires in conduit in them, as well as extension cords.
@@glittalogik Thanks for the tip on SketchUpEssentials. They've got a learn SketchUp in 30 days series that I've been binge watching, and learning a ton.
@@alexwbakker Thanks, I never considered channels. I was looking at putting in conduit under the slab and having outlets in the floor (well actually in boxes above the floor so dust wouldn't get in them). Channels with metal covers may be a better solution, though I'd still be concerned about dust collecting in the channels.
Building a shop right now and this has some excellent tips for workflow. Gonna help eliminate moving my tools several times LOL. Good job and Thank you for all of your tips and comments.
This is great information! As someone just getting started and working in just shy of 100 square feet in a shed with an extension cord powering everything, I really resonate with the importance of shop layout!
First of all I want to thank you for putting this together... I need to make better use of my shop space, so I got your PDF "tool" to help layout your shop... It's really nice that you have a lot of common tools measured out. One critique: The floor plan grid was too light for my printer so I drew up my own on graph paper at 1/2" = 1' scale. And of course I needed to measure out the locations for doors, windows, electrical, and custom made items, so I made some cutouts for them... And after I got all that jotted down I immediately began working on rearranging my floor plan... except I'm finding out it's a floor "pain"... LOL. What I've got for a shop area is an enclosed patio space about 12' x 22' so it's probably the size of a 1 car garage. Also the kind of DIY projects I work on aren't your typical workflows, I don't really have specific kinds of projects... it's whenever I need something made, and the shop can be idle for long periods of time too. But I love having the shop when inspiration strikes to have it ready to go and be useful! So if I am put in a category: it is weekend DIY'er.
Congratulations on the new upgrade. Those throwback clips also warrant a congrats on getting healthier. You can see that your life has been improving all the way around. Keep up the hard work, your killing it 💪 👊.
Hi again, don't forget safety and First Aid ! ! ! I have a first aid kit thanks to your video on the subject, and yesterday I was very happy I did . . . it was a small accident with a cabinet cross cut saw, inside of my left thumb, the nail stopped it going very deep. Thanks Jonathan. Stay safe.
Hey man, I've been watching your stuff for a couple years now. I just stumbled upon an oldie from 2016 -center keyed box joints. You have been creative and hustling for years! You are talented, and you are killing it man! Congratulations, and please keep making this great content.
First of all, Excellent video. Second I bought a stop block from your sale and a kids shop apron. I really like when manufacturers offer seconds. I'm more than happy to have something even if it has a scratch since I'll be using it and adding my own dings anyway.
i call this style the paper doll layout - did this type style layout for a co i worked for over 30 years works great don't forget to add walk around area and door swings if applicable
Great layout! Can definately tell some thought went into the 'process' of future wood working - something to learn by. Thank you for the free tool, as I can now assess my shop for the best 'work flow'.
You mentioned you were going to build a work bench. I would love it if you would take some time to explain the decisions you made with respect to overall style, height, vises, and work holding options. I am right on the cusp of building my first true woodworking bench and I find my style very similar to you with regard to the balance you strike between hand tools and power tools. There are a lot of videos out there but not many people explain why they made the decisions they made, so I can choose if it will be right for me. Love the channel, and thanks for doing what you do!
Jonathan, awesome job with the layout tool. It’s fantastic to get this experience share and I will use the tool so I can long range plan for shop growth. I hold classes in my work shop and this tool helps with safety clearances for each work station. Thanks!
Shop setup is something that I'm constantly struggling with. The shop that I have is about 350 sq ft and already had benches with cabinets built around around 1 full wall and part of another. The other speedbump I'm hitting is the ceiling is only a little over 9 ft tall. I'm still building my tool collection so I've had to be very creative but I'm thinking it's time to rip out the benches and cabinets to start over with something that fits me better.
I'm currently in the process of setting up my 760 sq ft shop and the templates will be great to help with that. Always look forward to your videos as your presentation and teacher style is of great help
I have approximately 850sq ft and finished working on the outside around a month ago. Half of the inside is uninsulated and unsheathed. Once I get that done I'll be installing a load bearing beam around 16' long where the back wall of the original workshop was. I built it in two phases because of a limited budget and time constraints. It will be open plan then with two five foot wall sections for storage cabinets and tool racks. It's my second workshop build and one thing I've learned is to put all my machines and benches on castor's. The ability to be able to move things around at will is key.
Still need to check out this vid, definitely good timing since I'm moving from a backyard to basement shop. Anyway, was just thinking, it would be awesome to see you guys develop a saw/chisel guide to compliment the dovetail jig I have. I know the 90 is built into the dt, but like 45, 30, maybe 22.5 for some flag boxes. Anyway, you rock, keep it up.
Good considerations for shop layout, Jonathan. I've been hoping you would come out with a small brass mallet--can't wait for the pre-sale on that! Looks like your new shop will keep you and the crew busy for some time, making it your own. Love your content--keep it coming! Thank you.
i have done this with my farm too as to machinery buildings bought toys and farm machinery to see the best way to plan it out too I was not the only one who had the input of the plans too it has paid off had all the groundwork with all of the utility in place too then the foundation to the building too i have the plans when each plug-in in the machine shop is to totally overkill this but we had a problem with one bay in the short time we had it figured out pull new wires to the bay and it was fix the old wire was pull out too
The free tool is great!! I'll bet a lot of use sketchup to design projects. Maybe you could make these available as sketchup components. At least in 2D free and maybe 3D for a fee!!!
Thanks Jonathan. My problem is I only have a 288 ft.² shop with enough tools to fill a 1000 square-foot shop. But I still think this too will help me thank you again.
Awesome content, I've bought some of your stuff in the past and have future plans. Thanks for the free PDFs! We moved into a new house that comes with a 3 car shop (about 2000 sq ft) and this will help with layout once I insulate it and get the useless car lift sold and out!
May have been asked & answered already, but I gotta know- what’s the big circle grid stand thing? I’m way past beginner, just this side of intermediate, watched hundreds of woodwork tutorials and that’s the first one I’ve seen. Intrigued.
They dont get the chinook wind effect from the Black hills. I forget the year, but Spearfish went from 20 something below zero to 45 above zero in 5 minutes, then set another record that same day when the sun set, temp dropped back to -20 in 2 minutes. Good place to freeze dried coffee
I just started getting things for my own workshop. I had 500 square feet at my disposal. Now I need to move everything into a 150 ft room and I have no idea how to set up my workshop in such a tiny space.
I built a over hang off my single car garage. This is where I would like to store my lumber. Any advice on how to try and keep the moisture down. Or would that be a big issue if it’s not rained / snowed on
I can't seem to find the video where you were talking about the non profit you started for disabled woodworkers so figured I'd post here. I wish there was something for someone like me for that. I'm 39 and have a lot going on. Osteoarthritis, degenerative disc disease, my left leg has issues with blood flow so a bone called the navicular in my left foot basically died and is dissolving. But In my state and my age none of this is considered a disability. Being a woodworker for many years I'm afraid it's getting to the point I won't be able to do it much longer because of things like not having a planer or jointer and having to be on my feet for way longer than I can be to hand plane. Its sad that the tools that would allow me to actually get back to doing what I love full time are so expensive. Since my state doesn't consider any of this a disability I don't get disability. And I've seen your program and a couple others that requires paperwork that I can't get because, it's not considered a disability. Even though I can't be on my feet longer than an hour without days of debilitating pain. It just sucks. I wish there was more kind people out there or more programs that would be able to help me.
The book provides clear illustrations th-cam.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO diagrams that cover many of the essential topics. The projects at the end of the book are valuable for enhancing your skills and creating your own furniture. A digital platform linked to the book that could offer the plans for other woodworking projects with the cut sheets would have been a nice addition, but overall, the book is excellent.
Good video discussion. One criticism...the coffee cup on the table saw...the horror of it 😱 (And yes. I know it's not on the cast iron top part. Still...)
Does anybody know of a software that will let you easily size images to a scaled dimension?- like paste an image, apply a 10’x10’ dimension to it at a 1/4”=1’ scale?
I would do anything to have a decent sized shed in my backyard to house my woodworking tools. I just bought my first house, and while I’m very grateful for the house, I have no room to pursue my passion in woodworking :(
The shop layout page will not let me add it to the cart using FireFox. I tried Safari and the links and comments won't even load. Great video though. I did the best I could laying out my shop without any layout tools. I'm installing a mini split heat pump now and am somewhat committed as I finished most of the electrical work except for the 240 coming down a yet to be placed 6x6 pole for a 4 tool island (band saw, planer, jointer, drum sander). It would be nice to verify what I've planned so far will work. Even with a 1050 square foot building with a 10 x 12 office is included, things might be tight because of my 5 x 10 CNC.
@@katzmosestools Turns out my old Firefox browser on an old Mac did not like your free files. It worked for the paid stuff. I was able to download it just fine on my new computer. Thanks. I'm going to be ordering more plans as soon as the shop is done.
I do wish y'all just had a link to the pdf if it's free. Having to give you guys payment information and what not to checkout for not paying feels gross.
You don’t have to enter your payment details. Just click submit. Plus, nothing is free right? The whole point of offering it for free is to get people to check out our store. You get a free video and a free PDF. I probably would be a pretty bad business owner if I didn’t get anything beneficial from that right?
@@katzmosestools I don't disagree with gwtting something from it but I tried that and it wouldn't let me continue without putting my billing info for name, address, etc. I'm more than happy being sent to your store, and your video was awesome. But I'm less happy putting in data like that for a print out as a software developer. I just know it shouldn't be nessesary and am making you aware I guess.
Seems I am being approached by a scammer that says I won a prize for commenting on this video. Says I won a magnetic drill and is asking me to pay $85 for the shipping.
It's great to see your success and expansion but for most of us hobbyists which I assume, most of your viewers are, we are not looking for info on big shops. There are too many that do this just for TH-cam cash. Many that I follow and find informative, but they are not being truthful like 3x3, she does it strictly for TH-cam content, Stumpy has even built a second shop to keep the studio shop as a makebelieve woodworking shop but his info is also interesting the whole game is just deceitful and not what 90% of the hobbyist are looking for. Hobbyists are looking for other hobbyist and their ideas, projects, mods etc. Maybe I am wrong but I don't think so.

This is literally how I have laid out my home & garage space for 25yrs lol.
When will the router plane be available for purchase?
The book provides clear illustrations th-cam.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO diagrams that cover many of the essential topics. The projects at the end of the book are valuable for enhancing your skills and creating your own furniture. A digital platform linked to the book that could offer the plans for other woodworking projects with the cut sheets would have been a nice addition, but overall, the book is excellent.
All that graph paper... How much room around the demigorgon do I need for my table saw?
Great idea! And great shop! Congrats on the space. Now stop ripping off Tamar’s stopblock.
Good video discussion.
One criticism...the coffee cup on the table saw...the horror of it 😱 (And yes. I know it's not on the cast iron top part. Still...)
I really want to know what the other 13,500 sq ft is used for.
what's that hold down clamp on the moxon vise bench?
Bro! My shop is a 140ft sq ft "fancy shed" with and extension cord going to it lol
Does anybody know of a software that will let you easily size images to a scaled dimension?- like paste an image, apply a 10’x10’ dimension to it at a 1/4”=1’ scale?
I would do anything to have a decent sized shed in my backyard to house my woodworking tools. I just bought my first house, and while I’m very grateful for the house, I have no room to pursue my passion in woodworking :(
The shop layout page will not let me add it to the cart using FireFox. I tried Safari and the links and comments won't even load. Great video though. I did the best I could laying out my shop without any layout tools. I'm installing a mini split heat pump now and am somewhat committed as I finished most of the electrical work except for the 240 coming down a yet to be placed 6x6 pole for a 4 tool island (band saw, planer, jointer, drum sander). It would be nice to verify what I've planned so far will work. Even with a 1050 square foot building with a 10 x 12 office is included, things might be tight because of my 5 x 10 CNC.
FYI it's worked for 2,487 other people so far. Try chasing your cache
@@katzmosestools Turns out my old Firefox browser on an old Mac did not like your free files. It worked for the paid stuff. I was able to download it just fine on my new computer. Thanks. I'm going to be ordering more plans as soon as the shop is done.
I stopped paying attention and just got excited when you said you were going to be releasing that router plane!
That shop planning looks great but my "shop" is 12' by 8' and I need the middle free for my wheelchair, so I'm just putting tools where I can lol.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
To have a shop that size, 99.9% of us will never have
Katz-Moses router plane... looks strangely exactly like my new Hongdui router plane... I must say that's a good plane
We developed them together and are going to be doing a series of 6 tools together
Wow, paper dolls for boys.
I've got 65 sqft...work pretty well.
You should build a Roubo workbench that puts Matt Estlea to shame.
The jimmy kimmel of wood working
What about 130 square foot shop lol I have all of the same tools in that small a space
If I had a space the size of an Amazon warehouse I wouldn't need you to tell me how to lay out my shop.
I do wish y'all just had a link to the pdf if it's free. Having to give you guys payment information and what not to checkout for not paying feels gross.
You don’t have to enter your payment details. Just click submit. Plus, nothing is free right? The whole point of offering it for free is to get people to check out our store. You get a free video and a free PDF. I probably would be a pretty bad business owner if I didn’t get anything beneficial from that right?
@@katzmosestools I don't disagree with gwtting something from it but I tried that and it wouldn't let me continue without putting my billing info for name, address, etc. I'm more than happy being sent to your store, and your video was awesome. But I'm less happy putting in data like that for a print out as a software developer. I just know it shouldn't be nessesary and am making you aware I guess.
Seems I am being approached by a scammer that says I won a prize for commenting on this video. Says I won a magnetic drill and is asking me to pay $85 for the shipping.
100% real, every woodworker needs a magnetic drill to stick to the wood. 😂 Finally get rid of your drill press 😂😂
It's great to see your success and expansion but for most of us hobbyists which I assume, most of your viewers are, we are not looking for info on big shops. There are too many that do this just for TH-cam cash. Many that I follow and find informative, but they are not being truthful like 3x3, she does it strictly for TH-cam content, Stumpy has even built a second shop to keep the studio shop as a makebelieve woodworking shop but his info is also interesting the whole game is just deceitful and not what 90% of the hobbyist are looking for. Hobbyists are looking for other hobbyist and their ideas, projects, mods etc. Maybe I am wrong but I don't think so.
