The Bureau of Wood Adjustment:



Half a 2 car garage, walled off from the other half.  The bench is the 2x4 based one from New Yankee Workshop plans, with shoulder vice/dog holes, cheapo face vice.  The box underneath has four drawers on the other side for small tools. 

Note the junior B.W.A. bench near the door as well.  Good for working on bartops.   >:D

My workshop is 1/2 of our 2 car garage.  The other half is taken up by my kids bicycles and my bicycles (yes...plural).

It's a bit messy in the middle of this build (about a month ago..), but I had just put away all the crap from my bench.  It's 6' x 3' laminate counter that I picked up from HD.  If I'm going to be jamming on something, I use the 3/4 plywood bench at the back wall.  

I have enough tools to rebuild a car...sans lift, and enough wood working tools to build my cabs, some fences..whatever.  My main hobby is and always will be building/refurbishing 80s BMX bikes.  I love building wheels from scratch (there's something cool about putting those weak parts together and coming up with something so strong...)



Leaning on the bench, watching the little man kick the crap outta bad guys in TMNT (heros on the half shell).

OMG I want! That sure takes me back to my early 90's at the BMX track.

Great stuff guys! Keep it coming! :applaud:

I was a diesel mechanic for a number of years, so my tools reflect that. My interest in woodworking is growing, and I'm envious of all of you with large selections of woodworking tools. Some day, some day...

I don't really have a specified work area, sometimes it's the kitchen table, sometimes it's a hotel room... But since we moved into our new house, the garage has been pretty handy.

Here's my box. I want to build a decent work bench for where the bikes and ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- are sitting. The side locker is full of manuals and misc parts. I'll be throwing up some peg board behind the box soon. That little cabinet with all the little drawers... yup, filled with Molex. ;)


Sockets.


Wrenches.


Pliers.


Drivers.


And too many specialty tools to post up...

That's an amazing set of tools, Nephasth. It's a bummer that my family doesn't have a garage(we converted it into an apartment for my grandmother to live in). As long as this thread continues to stay active, I'll post a link to my final choice for the disconnect crimping tools, so that the members here can review my choice.
