Hello!
Last Holiday Break over Xmas 2009, the Smooth Shifting Gruppo
organized and implemented a re-org of our space. We'd been having a
lot of tools go missing. We also needed to re-paint the walls. What
we did was we made a toolboard for each stand with a shared middle
board of tools that don't always get used. We gave each board and
tools a color with the middle board sort of the same neutral blue we
painted along the bottom of the wall. For the tools on that board
they're painted a combination of the adjacent colors. It's almost
been a year and it really worked! Tool walking has subsided and the
space looks great.
Here's a link to some photos.
Cheers.

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if shops could share their bench designs and/or shop
layouts - we're moving in January and trying to set ourselves up as
best as possible. Specifically, it'd be great if anyone has a copy
of your bench design & material list, and in terms of layout we're
most interested in bench spacing - see below for an example. What
works about your current layout and what doesn't?Our current layout uses a bench that is ~18" deep (from the wall),
~50" from edge of the bench to bike-stand pole, and the length of
the clamp (from pole to clamp-edge) is ~18." Our spacing between
benches is erratic given our current shop space, but our new space
is nice and square-ish.Thanks! -Lee Reis
