Looks good. It’s always an organization battle in my shop.
Almost as messy as my garage.;-) Thanks for the tour. Please clarify how those two granite blocks are used to align tools.
Put every thing on wheels. It makes life sooo much easier.
How so? I don’t need to move anything.
Nice video. I’ve put several of my power tools on mobile bases. Allows me to move things around to accommodate large or long projects.
Nice video. I liked the tip about rust. Will have to do something when I move back to the coast.
Thanks for the tour I love the idea of your tablesaw fence angle set up and the jig
Love all the tools. I would make dust collection a priority with all the machines you have. Good luck.
Hi;
You sure have a lot of tools in a small area. i was also lucky to upgrade to a 8" Grizzly jointer a couple years and added a Byrd head on it. If you go to a 3 Hp dust collector, please go with the metal pass thought blast gates. The plastic one's get dust in the bottom and then the gate don't close all the way. This is something I learned the hard way.
I ran into the same problem that you are having with 220 volt machines. I got tired of moving heavy cords and added 4- 220 volt outlets, but in your shop I think you could get by with one on each side or your shop. I also put a sub panel in the shop so if I killed a circuit I did not have to go in the house. I understand all these upgrades cost money.
On your little A C does it have a filter and how hard is to to change or clean? The fine dust in the shop gets in everything.
Have Fun in your shop
You have a Rigid isolating sander and a drum sander. Why not setup the extra table saw with stacked dado blades? I would think that would be handier than another type of sander. Just curious no judgment. The 6''jointer could find you a nice 3hp dust collector. The jointer looks new and Powermatic power tools has a great resale value. That actually would buy you the dust collector, pipes and accessories for it. Nove layout too!
I've thought about doing that before, unfortunately the fence and rail system for that saw are not very accurate. And aligning the fence is undone when it is re-positioned. I also don't have an outfeed table for the saw which would take up too much room for my already overcrowded shop. The sanding disc seems to be the most appropriate tool to use in that saw. I appreciate your question.
Great shop tour, Brian. Thanks for sharing.
Nice, thanks for the help Brian.
Any time, Wayne!
Great video! I wish I had the extra space. Please forgive me as my mind is spinning in a 'wish list' if you will. It is definitely giving me some ideas for a future shop of my own if I can build one. If you do go to sell the 6" jointer, swap the 8" jointer to that location. Allows you to access the other side of the outfeed/assembly table. Could even drop the router table on the table saw extension wing since that side opens up for you. Then would suggest switching location of bandsaw and router table. That way you can rip with the bandsaw across the width of the shop.
Thanks for sharing your shop! Your Amazon affiliate link is broken, I was going to look at that table saw sanding disk.
You need to turn your ad blocker off.
Thanks for the shop tour. You have a nice setup.
Thanks for the tour Brian. It looks like with the garage door closed, dust collection is in your future!
I only wish I had more room to put one.
Smart table saw sander trick
Sorry if I missed it but how do you manage the different 220v tools? Extension cords?
Nice video! Only suggestion I have is get a larger shop! Any plans to move out of a garage and into a larger space?
Nice table saw router table combo fence set up. Really good idea that.
Boshield works great to prevent rust.
Thanks for the tour, it's always fun to see other shops.
Suggestion: Put those shop improvements to the top of the list. You don't do a lot of those types of videos and it might be a good change.
What part of the country are you in? I'm in Houston and have been looking for a way to keep may garage workable.
I would suggest moving that lumber storage unit to an outside shed if possible. It’s really hogging a lot of valuable wall space needed for a dust collector. Those extra machines I bet really hurt and that outfeed table needs a rethinking. In a one man shop such as yours, upgrading the 220v circuits could be one dedicated to a dust collector and the second have multiple taps to feed each machine. Unplugging and replugging is a hassle you can do without as your never going to be running more than one machine and the dust collector at the same time.
Not a bad idea moving the lumber storage outside. I'd have to build something to store it.
I have always been envious of your tool collection. I am very surprised at your minimal dust collection. I also have a dust deputy hooked up to a Shop-Vac but find even my cheep Harbor fright DC hooked up to a supper dust deputy to be far superior. Especially when using my 6 inch belt sander. Certainly something I find invaluable with my thicknesser and jointer. I must say I have a basement shop and find dust wandering upstairs is an issue, so DC is a big thing for me.
Big Bang fan I see. Cool!
Great tour, thanks for sharing
I feel you pain with the patches you have created for dust collection, I am in a smaller setting and have to move hoses for connection. IMO, time is money and with the amount of work that you do you should invest in the expense and time to install a proper vent/vac system along with protection of your health....enjoy your channel...ATB
I was wondering if you ran the dust collection from the drum sander so that it exited horizontally, instead of where it goes up vertically, if that would help. Then you wouldn't be trying to lift the sawdust so high but just move it sideways. Just a thought.
The dust ports are only on top of the machine.
Thanks for the tour. A few questions I had is regarding dust. Does dust migrate into your home? How do you control dust in the air? Another thought, I too work in out 2 car garage. I purchased a 1.5 hp Laguna dust collector which I connect to each tool individually when in use. I have a Laguna 17" band saw, 3 hp Sawstop table saw, Dewalt 13" planer or my router table. I roll it around to each tool as I use them. I have not been happy with this size of dust collector. Just my two cents but if you are in the market for one my research / recommendation would be to look into one that is at least 3 hp. I am saving for this size and will replace my 1.5 hp as soon as I can. Thanks again for your video.
My goal this summer is to try and prevent most dust from getting airborne. Dust does make into the entry way of the house but it's dust that comes in from my shoes.
Thanks for sharing this. I'm putting together a shop of my own in the basement and you just gave me some good ideas to incorporate into my space.
Excellent tips and examples.
thank you
do you have plans for that tablesaw/router table fence? I like how you attached them together and still be able to tilt the router fence.
Yes. See plans here : www.garagewoodworks.com/GW_Store.php
If you sold your old jointer how much would you cell it for
Are you in NC?
How do you get the tools such as the jointer or table saw in the middle of your garage electricity?
I use extension cords and run them under rubber floor mats.
@@GarageWoodworks awesome thanks for your fast reply! Just found your channel from a review of a jointer I purchased. Love the content. Keep it up
Thank you.
tilting router table fence. thats a good idea!, I think..
A tilting fence opens up more possibilities for your router bit profiles. Make a chamfer with a straight bit? Yes please!
How’s the a/c unit been performing? I’m thinking about getting that or something similar for my garage
if nothing else, then FIRST!! Thanks for the tour
Hi,, Brian. Your shop is looking great. I didn’t see your floor mats in your Amazon shop, so if you recommend them, I’d really appreciate you sending me the name of the company where you got these and the item number.
Thanks.
Hi Barbara - I got the mats from rubberflooringinc.com
Use reusable silica desiccants to stop tool rust. $2 buys 100 sachets
with a/c you will need better dust collection u know what and how ---for your health bro.
I have a small problem I hooked up a cyclone to a small vacuum it sucks in the pail I tried two different pails, is the vacuum the problem or other do you think
Sounds like you just need a pail with a thicker wall. Mine does that sometimes too.
Same issue. I bought a reconditioned HDPE barrel. No more issues. Need a stronger bucket to solve it.
Awesome shop! Great use of space!
Nicely done, Brian. Always like to see other peoples shops. Good luck with dust collection from your bandsaw. I have lots of suction in a 6" hard-piped DC that splits into two 4" flex hoses that attach to the 4" upper and lower ports of my 19" bandsaw, and I get maybe 50% of the dust. On my 14" I get maybe 20% of the dust. Might as well not have them hooked up :-( And one suggestion for a 2-car garage shop that worked well for me: I replaced my 13" portable planer and 6" jointer with a Jet combo jointer-planer with helical head, saves a ton of floor space and having a 12" jointer is almost life-changing! And the helical head is much quieter than straight knives. How did you get wood species all mixed up on your storage racks? I thought you used cherry, cherry, cherry...jk :-)
How much are you going to sell the jointer for
I’m not sure yet.
Hello from Russia! How do you solve the problem with production waste?
I burn all of my waste wood and the sawdust is thrown away in the garbage.
You got rid of the Griz ?
What Griz?
@@GarageWoodworks the jointer
I still have it. You can see it in the video and thumbnail.

Did you get a free air conditioner for promoting it?
Obviously
See ya.
@@ya2131 Thank you! Is shipping included? 😀
