History of our Woodshop
I started building this shop, inside of my main shop building, in early 2006.
As of December 28, 2006, I can finally move in to this shop. Here it is, as empty as anyone will ever see it!
As of January 6, 2007, I have moved in. Here it is, filling up fast!
It's now late November of 2010. I've added some used kitchen cabinets, a dust collection system and a bunch of
stock.
Same date, looking toward the other end of the shop.
Now it's August of 2016.
See how this shop has filled up. It's even getting hard to walk around. That's why I tell everyone that you can never
build a shop that is too large!!!
I recently revived a large old band saw that was made by the B. M. Root Company. It has 36" wheels and is about 8 feet tall.
Unfortunately, I didn't have room to fit it into this shop as I had planned, so I had to install it out in my wood storage building!
(See---- I told you that you can never build a shop that is too big!!!)
Here's what this band saw looks like today:
