    Man O man! Looks fantastic! I remember what it looked like when you started organizing. Kinda looked like a bomb went off in your shop. That was a lot of work Adam. I’m happy for you. You can go to town on jobs now. Everything is accessible and ready to be used. No more cleaning off the machine to use it. Your shop looks like a firm pair of ( . Y . ) now. I bet you feel pretty proud about now, and you should. Thanks.

    Shop is looking great Adam. Keep up the good work and videos. Tornado wrecked everything for me in January, but we have about finished rebuilding our house so the shop is next. Shop actually done better than the house and won’t take long to fix. Then maybe I’ll do an updated tour of mine.

    Cyclops grinders! Never see anyone talk about these. I have a little red Wizard mounted to my bench. Super weak but they’re useful for cleaning up small parts and fine work.

    Now I think you can get a hunk of iron to the back of the shop lol. Much more room to get around the machinery. I still think you would benefit from putting the compressor out back and pipe air to the front. Less noise and free up space for the bandsaw.AL B.
