Well, after around 50 hours, the shed clean out and organisation is just about DONE!
My timber (which was laying all around the shed) is stored under the carport until I build a skillion between the shed and the fence to store it all, and I've got a bit of work left to do.
First pic is a general before and after. The Bondall Garage and Factory Floor Protector is great. HEAPS easier to sweep up now. For the general layout, I moved the lathe against a wall and got rid of a low long cupboard to free up heaps of space in the middle of the shed. I then put all my 'timber break down' machines down the middle. It seems to look good and appears it will be functional (hopefully!).
Second pic shows the insulation and plywood lining I decided to start right at the last minute. Only did one quarter due to time and money, will do the rest later on. I'll leave it unpainted, and paint it white behind the lathe and workbench to reflect light (all other sides will be covered by shelves etc).
Third pic is the next wall I will line, especially to help contain the dust and chips from the lathe. Turning tools and related stuff will go onto the wall behind the lathe.
Fourth pic shows the two walls where the wobbly workbench was. I will build a new workbench where that table is. I'll then put drawers or shelves above that cupboard on the back wall.
Fifth pic is the shelving I bought. Also, I will get a base with castors (the type that has the castors lift up to set the base down on its feet) for the thicknesser to make it easy to move out when I need it. I also bought some ply to make a stand for the saw, which will also wheel out and have extendible wings.
So what's next? Insulate and line remaining walls, build workbench, build timber storage, move dust extractor outside, bring the remaining 'odds and ends' back into workshop, use the workshop and keep it clean! I'm really happy with how it has turned out. Everything is now clean again, and I've learnt that no matter how many 'just one cuts' I do, I will always take the effort to hook up the dust extraction......
