PBJ-

I'm trying to convince him to buy a wood CNC machine for the wood shop! If I do, I'll trade you a custom cut Pac-Man for a pinball and case of beer.

Looks like some car guys above,
I have something to make you jealous: My Garage has a pit.

I have no automotive abilities, though I do have an old car.  Basement has 2 doors into the garage.  One is to a few stairs taking you up to the garage level, other is to a large pit that you can park your car over and access the undercarriage.

Wish I knew what I was doing so I could utilize it, right now it just accumulates bugs.  ::)

While I haven't actually built anything yet, I'm rather envious of you guys and your set ups. I was starting to build up a nice collection of tools until my tool box disappeared... At the moment I've got a table set up with a small vice and all my tools are in a rather large box. My garage has already been converted in a distribution centre/office for my house mate's business.

Great topic idea,  here's my set up.  The work bench I built from oak in 2005.



Here's some of my favourite tools to work with, some are good quality like the Metabo sander and the Triton saw while others are cheap like the two Ryobi routers,my drill press gets used often as does the Bosch hand drill. The Ryobi stuff may be cheap but it's never given me any trouble, the routers are just a bit underpowered.  One day I'll invest in a better router, maybe a Dewalt or a Metabo.  I had a Makita router I really liked, more powerful than the Rybobi's, it got used so much and got clogged with MDF dust that it burnt out :( .  The Dremel type tool is very handy too.  The PC under the bench is a P4 Dell I scored from work, in fact I scored 5 or 6 of these with monitors, they were all destined for the scrap heap as part of an IT refresh, there's nothing wrong with them at all and they make good test rigs for apps destined for my arcade projects. I shovelled as many as I could fit into my car boot on the day  ;D
The high swivel chair I picked up at a Firestation bric-a-brac sale for $5.  The low roller stool comes in really handy when I'm sanding projects or working on stuff near to the ground.   Not pictured is my saw table with various fittings, one of the best investments I've ever made!
