Shop History 2013
So this is the state of the shop as of January 2014. This has come a long way in 10 years. I always enjoy being in the shop. Lots of on hand supplies so I can usually do any project that comes along.
Looking forward to more real shop time since I have retired as of 2014. A few new shop projects are scheduled for 2014. I want to get these completed ASAP so that I can enjoy be a maker and a craftsman.

Shop history 2007
In 2007 the shop was really becoming a working wood shop. The Craftsman tablesaw base was completed. More storage and organization was added. The router table was a big addition.
The biggest milestone was the starting of my first serious piece of furniture.

Shop history 2006
As you can see the shop is coming together at this point.
Shop history 2005
I do not have a group of pictures for 2005. I started working on this in 2006, I think. A new base for the table saw. This was a very significant effort. It’s purpose was two fold. One to create a new base for the old Craftsmans saw and second to improve my overall skills at cabinet making. It worked on both counts.

The shop started coming together during this year. The saw was moved to the central part of the shop. The tool wall started to be used to organize some tools and I started gathering a few clamps.
