New shop wall cabinets

[Douglas Robinson]

More progress on the new basement shop. I built two wall cabinets over my bench. This is not fine woodworking, but I do not have to worry about damaging them.

I fixed the wiring on my cyclone and have begun figuring out the duct layout.

Something inspiring about watching a shop come together. Thanks for sharing.

That’s a great start Doug

Love the smell of new in the shop.

 

[Mike Davis]

Good start.

Are you planning something for the space between the two cabinets?

Yes, open shelves for protective gear, e.g. Eye, ear and breathing protection

Making progress, Doug. What's the story with the golden 'F' clamp on the bench? Don't think I've ever seen one painted gold before.

Dang you have a keen eye. That is part of my 2009 Inaugural Shop Crawl Award. Bas made it as a surprise for me after the very first Crawl.. I have the base and will take a full picture of it for fun.

It's a magical clamp. When you're panicking during a complex assembly and the glue is setting up, this clamp will magically pull any box square. It obtained its magical properties from being forged by Christopher Schwarz ("black magic") and being carried by Norm Abraham in a plaid shirt pocket for a year and a day.

Shelves between cabinets have been added. Storing masks ear and eye protection there
