Dan Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 I just read a post and see that Christina has her saw in the living room. That's cool! I got to thinking, where does everyone saw? Mine was in the garage until the weather got cold, now it's in the basement. Where's yours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amazingkevin Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Mines in the dining room which we don't use! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Messman Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 mine is in my shop, currently put away on a shelf while I build a much larger project. But once I go to sawing with it it goes right onto my work bench. Sorry no pictures to post of it right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombatie Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Mines in the garage but I would dearly love a basement to put it in, we just don't have basements in Australia. Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grampa Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Because its so cold mine is next to me in bed and the wife is in the workshop, or is that the other way round ,,,Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kepy Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Four of mine are in the shop which is really too small. The fifth is still at a friend's house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 I have small bedroom in the basement that my wife was kind enough to let me have. That's where I do my scrolling and smaller woodcrafting projects. It will also be the home of my future lathe I keep my larger tools in the garage where I can work on larger projects. I have a very understanding wife to let me have two workshops. Eventually, the small bedroom will be renovated and I'll lose my heated mini-workshop. But that will be a few years down the road. Which gives me time to save up for a garage heater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clayton717 Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 My scrollsaw is outback in my shed/shop, along with all my other tools.It used to be half and half - storage/shop. Now it is all shop except a little space in the loft(attic). It is only 10x12 but it works great for me since its all I got. And being small its fairly easy to keep it warm, even now, since its only in the teens outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amazingkevin Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 I forgot about the brand new dremil 1830 i never uesed when dremil honered there warranty and sent me a brand new one instead of fixing the old one . I requested a new top arm with roll pins to keep the saw going 2 years instead of one. They are not making scroll saws anymore. I am totaly pleased with the detla ss250 with quick release blade holders ,which broke and i did a quick fix with a (one) rubber band and it works BETTER than new,go figure!I'm going to leave it like that as it's a better mouse trap now.The dremils just going to be a paper weight on the floor.Will up grade trade for a better deltas,maybe a ss350 if someones interested.Zero time on the dremil.

Barry5180 Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 I have my small shop setup in a basement room of our apartment building. All the other tenants get just a small cage for extra storage, but thankfully we lucked out and have two pretty decent sized rooms for storage. I took one of them over as my shop. At the moment, it's a disaster area that really needs cleaned up. Pictures coming right after cleaning. Barry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Messman Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Barry I picture of a clean shop is a picture of an unused shop, lets see it in all of it glory, what you call a mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted January 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Barry, show us a before and after picture. I like to know I'm not the only one who cleans up only when I can't find tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky2 Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I am fortunate enough to have two shops, a small on in the basement of our house and a new workshop in our backyard. I have a scrollsaw for each shop so weather isn't a factor nor is the cold. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarruda144 Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I have an 11x8 shed that I use,but this year my wife let me use a spare bedroom, I think she wants something and hasn't come around to asking for it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wood-n-things Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Mine is setup in the 3rd bay of my garage. Heated in the winter and air in the summer ( i just open the garage door) LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky2 Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 I have two identical saws and have them in two separate workshops,one is in my small basement workshop and I use it whenever there isn't a fire on in my other workshop which isn't all that big 16'x24'. After there is a little more work done on my separete workshop I'll be moving my house saw out to there also. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave M Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Well mine started out in the garage, but got a layer of rust from the moisture, and is now cleaned up and in the basement! I'm now trying to create a space to work in and a portable heater to keep the toes warm!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie saw Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I set mine up in my sawmill office. That way I get to do a bit of scrolling at lunch times etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
