shop tour - pic HEAVY

Very Nice..
Thanks for sharing...
Respect..
 
I like everything in its place and after useing a machine i try to clean my area. Mine has never been that clean. I wish it was.
 
Hey Nick, nice toys! I'd love to have all that stuff in MY shop!
The chuck laying on the bench appears to have indexing holes in it. Does that go on your dividing head or lathe? Was that from the old machinist's shop? If it fits on the lathe, what does the locking mechanism look like?
Very nice accumulation!

Nick that is the cleanest shop I have ever seen for new years I spent the hole day cleaning but I would need to spend a much more time then that to get anywhere close to as clean as that. Nice shop.
 
Killer shop, but man that NIMBA just does it for me. Serious anvil envy. I wouldn't know what to play with first with all those neat machines, a big day in my little shop is when I get a new file. That layout is super, everything in its place. I'm usually looking for something I misplaced, second level, third layer. Thanks for sharing.

Some great ideas there. I am glad to see I am not alone in this organized/clean shop/OCC thing. ;) Not that my shop is near this level.

Now the only thing not up to par is the dust collection system, or lack of. ;)
Water buckets are so....uncivilized! :P

Thanks for sharing.
 
I took more pics of little gadgety type crap this morning, and inside some of the drawers... but I've got a knife to build and I just came in for a protein drink... so back to the rodeo I go. ;) :)
 
All this talk about really clean shops, I just had to post these. Just links (not trying to hijack your thread here)

These are pictures of my "other" shop. The owner of this company wants it to have a certain look, so I keep it pretty freaken clean. I really didn't have to do anything before taking these picts, it looks like this most all the time. You can just about see your reflection in the floor.

My own shop is, uh, hum... a bit messy in comparison.
 
Do you use all or most of the machinery? nice shop by the way, i bet it produces some excelent knives.
 
Hey Nick, great pic's and a great shop, my ? is was it hard to get the power company to hook up the three phase?? Now that I have room for a real shop I want more power.
thanks Gordon
 
I wish my garage were half as organized as your shop. Between my junk, the step-son's, motorcycle, and my wife's gotta have it here stuff I can't even get to my workbench let alone find anything... :mad:
 
Nick, you suck. Eat a bag of poo.

Where did you hide all the doilies and cozies that go on the machines?
