"Be careful what you ask for...."
At the bottom of the basement stairs...this is what meets your eyes..
[attachment=48167]
Bit of a mess...so IF you turn to the left a bit..
[attachment=48168]
Aisle #1, shared with the Laundry Room...
[attachment=48169]
Cheap, plastic shelves? In a Basement that can have a creek running across the floor after a BIG rainstorm ( Frog Drowner?) so..plywood will not hold up very long..
[attachment=48170]
Shop's drill press, sitting on the stand I had to build for it...Beyond the white tubs, filled with drill bits, wire wheels and such..
[attachment=48171]
There is a high shelf...plain pine box holds the branding iron..at the end of this shelf..
[attachment=48172]
Another plastic shelf unit, and the well-worn Shop Stool...Look up just a tad..
[attachment=48173]
Where all the finishing "Stuff" resides...among other things...fancy wood box has spokeshaves inside...
[attachment=48174]
Hanging above the 1st cheap shelf unit...the longer F style clamps...further along that pipe..
[attachment=48175]
Are all the 6" clamps...and a Jorgenson Mitre Box ( in meed of a new blade)
End of Part 1...stay tuned...

Although you may have see this area..

This is where most of the work gets done...there is a shelf with ready to use planes...I work down at the end with the Leg Vise and End vise....IF a LONG board shows up, I do have a Crochet down on the far end to help hold things..
[attachment=48178]
Beyond the bench, there is a til for the larger planes...doors are normally locked closed. Just below this til..
[attachment=48179]
When we first moved into this house, there was an OLD dresser sitting in the basement...one drawer was all that remained...decided it was a decent place to hang all the c clamps I use...5" on down....handles are files used in the shop.
[attachment=48180]
IF you are standing facing the bench, a simple "About FACE" and you can open the doors...it IS hard to take a photo of this cabinet with both doors opened...so..
[attachment=48181]
Here is the rest of it. Box is about a 3' square cube....3' high, by 3' wide...and is 18" deep, counting the insides of the doors.
Of note, back against a wall...besides the #346 Mitre Box & Saw..
[attachment=48182]
And beyond the Langdon #75...is a "spare" Bandsaw ( 3 wheeler, 12") and the Router table is use..
On the bottom shelf of the 1st shelf unit....
[attachment=48183]
There is the shop's Scroll saw...13" tilting table.
And, the main reason I don't like open tils..

Thanks for the tour. I count 15 boxes; is that about right? IRRC, "the boss" claimed two.

Thanks for the tour Bandit!

Been a "Box Maker" for over 40 years, now....might want to add a zero to the end of that 15....
