Synopsis

A woodworking shop is always a "work-in-progress," often rearranged dozens of times to make improvements or to accommodate specific tasks. Woodworkers are always looking for ways to make the shop better, more efficient, and friendlier to use. Not being part of the living space of the house, a shop is often in an area with physical challenges, such as low head room in a basement shop or the need to work around a difficult floor plan. Specialized woodworking tasks require different shop configurations and different tooling and a different strategy for layout or accessories. This book uses the popular idea book format to address these many challenges, showing a wide variety of clever ideas and solutions for basics such as tool storage, lumber storage, accessorizing workbenches for special tasks, dedicated workstations.
