RE: Who has the messiest shop?
Super Ry, that's impressive!
I haven't had too many times where my shop gets messy with big stuff, but usually where I don't put away smaller things and end up searching all over for drill bits and other little objects that roll under the mess left on my workbenches. I was trying to put something together recently and had to stop and clean up because everytime I went to do something I just ended up spinning around in a circle trying to figure out under which pile the tool/piece I needed had rolled.

RE: Who has the messiest shop?
I guess I'm lucky in this regard, my wife's car gets parked in the garage every night and her tires are $400.00 a pop. I don't need no stinking "pops", so I'm forced to sweep the floor every day for nails, brads and staples.

RE: Who has the messiest shop?
Hey right back to you TBR,
I'm on a small Avocado ranch off of Casitas Pass Road in Carpinteria, after explaining 1,000 times I don't live in a town with carpet mills (easterners always pronounce it Car-pin-tier-ia, not the correct Car-pin-ta'-ria), I decided to make things easy and list Santa Barbara as my home town, even if it is 12 miles up the coast. If you would be interested in a cup of coffee sometime, shoot me an email at TSparks56@aol.com.
Beamerweb, Thank you for not holding a grudge against us "coasties", but I'm sure my son isn't feeling that way about you Sac guys about now. He is a U.C. Davis student and also in the CA. National Guard, of which his unit was just deployed this morning to help with the burst levies in the delta. I'm pretty sure he is wet, cold and just about miserable from the rain and mud about now...
Glad I'm not there!
His loving dad.

RE: Who has the messiest shop?
So, I was cleaning my 10x20' garage/shop last weekend, thinking, "Man, I'd never show anyone my shop. It's a mess!" I ended up filling 2 55 gallon trash cans with sawdust, scraps, cutoffs, cardboard, plastic wrapping, and miscellaneous dead and almost dead stuff. Then, I started on puttin the hand tool arsenal back into place. Then I thought about rearranging my shop for the umpteenth time to fit my left handedness. This would mean putting the tail vice on the other end of the bench, the table saw against the opposite side of the shop, etc., etc. I coulda just taken a picture 1st and you guys would feel clean as a whistle.
