    Default Amazing Workshop

    G'day mates,

    This is the most amazing workshop I've seen of a hobbyist woodworker.

    Jacques Jodoin's amazing workshop

    To get a perspective of the amount of tools in the workshop, don't miss the short video at page 3.

    Cheers

    Gunn

    PS. If someone has posted the link earlier, I apologise for the repeat.

    What an amazing collection of tools. I find it all a bit claustrophobic. There must be literally thousands and thousands of "bits and pieces in all those drawers, jars and storage bins. I wonder if he still needs to pop out to the local hardware store to get a particular screw that he doesn't have?

    You could get lost in there for hours.

    That seems a bit too much to look after.

    He has accumulated for 60 years. I guess some people just NEVER get rid of anything, either selling, donating or just giving it away.

    I have always enjoyed looking at workshops. It gives me lots of storage ideas and practices to either follow or discard.

    I had to pinch myself to check to see if I was dreaming or not! This must be what one corner of heaven must look like.

    All the same, I am very happy with my humble garage corner come workshop .

    All hail the King!

    Home Depot in America had a share issue to its employees which made more than a few of them quite wealthy. It was not uncommon to have someone point out a bloke stacking shelves and say "that guy is a multi-millionaire"; I'm wondering if he might be one of them - given his age it is possible.

    Those who had shares in the company saw them go from about $2.50 in 1990 to nearly $50 in 1998.

    Oh, and $5 for all those storage bins? They start at $7 each!
