OzarkSawdust Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 Now all I have to do is hit the Powerball !!! This was in my email box this morning from WOOD Magazine, along with some other articles. All I can say is WOW!!!!! It would be a decision each morning...fish or work in the shop...LOL Nestled in the forest on a shore of Lake Chelan in central Washington State, Mike Walker's 1,670-square-foot workshop is the epitome of organization. From the outset, plenty of storage space and an efficient workflow dominated the planning. "I am obsessed with organization," Mike says, "and we spent a lot of time planning spaces to accommodate all of the tools and accessories." new2woodwrk, wombatie, jollyred and 3 others 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 Everything is do clean. I think he spend all his money getting the shop set up. No cash left for wood. I like how his dust collection is below the shop. OzarkSawdust, OCtoolguy, Jim McDonald and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgman Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 You can tell that picture is really old. All those power tools are By General that were made in Canada. They haven’t made tools in a long time! OCtoolguy and OzarkSawdust 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would still love to have it, or one like it...LOL. tomsteve and OCtoolguy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCtoolguy Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 Since I live in a home that is 1600 square feet, this shop is larger than my abode. For sure it's a great example of what money can buy. But, I'll bet that most all of us are just as happy with what we have now. Sure, I'd love to have some more space but I'm very content in knowing that I'm far better off than many.

barb.j.enders Posted December 5, 2020 Report Share Posted December 5, 2020 There is just one problem with this shop - if you look at the floor plan in the link, there is no scroll saw!!! tomsteve, OzarkSawdust, WayneMahler and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScollSaw Slasher Posted December 5, 2020 Report Share Posted December 5, 2020 Give me a week and I'd have that place so messed up you wouldn't be able to even see out the windows. But if the windows were kept clean I'd probably be enjoying the view and not paying attention to where my fingers were going. OOPS!

Woodmaster1 Posted December 7, 2020 Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 Awesome shop I only get 2/3 of my 990sqft. Garage I built before retirement. I couldn't afford to build it now that I have retired. $35,000 is harder to come by now. OzarkSawdust 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
