Post America's Best Home Workshop

http://www.woodmagazine.com/wood/sto...&esrc=nwwood32

WOOD's looking for a few good shops


The second edition of America’s Best Home Workshops is nearly complete and will hit newsstands in late May. Now we’re looking for candidates for the third edition. That’s where you come in. Do you (or someone you know) have a shop that other woodworkers love to check out? Is it especially well-organized, or full of great jigs, storage ideas, or other interesting shop features? If so, the editors at WOOD magazine would like to hear from you. We’re looking for hard-working shops of all sizes and descriptions: big or small, elaborate or down-to-earth. You can also nominate individual shop organizers or jigs for the project gallery section.

Re: America's Best Home Workshop

I looked at the link. Is there a prize? I have the first issue and I liked it. Maybe we should put together an North Carolina Woodworker'er version in connection with a few shop crawls. Kind of like the calender. If there is interest in it, I am willing to work on putting it together.

Me too, big or small I always seem to find some thing that I can use in my shop. Besides, I've had shops in basements, side porches, small garages, and now a pole barn. You never know what the next shop brings.

Re: America's Best Home Workshop

Sounds good to me also.My shop is an old 12x65 mobil home.It's not much but it's mine. The roof leaks by the door got a 5gal. bucket for that.And when it's not raining I flip the bucket and sit by the door and work on my sticks. Not alot of tools eather but who knows one day I will add to the list. But like I said it's mine.

Re: America's Best Home Workshop

Just go ahead and give first and second places to Doug and Alan, then we can move on from there! (For organization)

For "big arn" Scott S and Dino would give anyone a run for the money.

For "Totally Mobile" I nominate Nativespec.

For "Most Tools" gotta "go to Jeremy."

And lastly, for biggest "junk-hole" put me at the head of the list!! No pics of this joint!!

I'd love to do the "crawl" if it gets organized.
