Settling In To The New Garage

September 28th, 2007

We bought our new house just about a year ago. And in that time I’ve been settling in to the new garage – extra deep. Which has given me some more space for my woodworking tools and general organization. While still having room for cars.

The first step was some simple cabinets:
lighting installed
I used white laminated paneling for the faces of the doors which makes a handy place for labeling the contents.
more cabinet labels

I also installed some cheap florescent lighting right in front of the cabinets – giving me plenty of light for working, not for photography though.

The next step was some pegboard for organizing those frequently used hand tools to clear off my workbench… as you can see I’ve got a ways to go before the bench is completely clean.

There have been some other woodworking projects I’ve worked on recently – mainly a wood privacy fence from reclaimed wood. Which looks great… and keeps the dog in.
