I find myself moving towards more hand tool use. Since my first Rob Cosman class on dove tails and the first WIA in 2008 I have come to appreciate and understand the role of hand tools as a woodworking craftsman.
So I created a plan in my OCD mind. Now that most of the plan has been completed, it is easy to put it in writing.
The plan:
Build a new shelf unit to store all of the hand power tools and a few other orphaned items. Completed
Move a section of plastic storage boxes to the space vacated by the hand power tools. Completed
Build a new “Chisel Chest”. This would contain all my measuring and marking tools as well as chisels, rasps and plane parts. Completed
Complete revamp the “tool wall”. Add 2 feet of space and remove everything and start over with the organization. This included a new Hammer rack and a new screw driver rack. Completed

Build a new Roubo style workbench. I call this Workbench TWO. In Process
