I'm always a little bit envious when I see other peoples shops and tools, especially when they can also display some of their wonderful collections in the same space.
My shop is a 10' X 20' shed out back, a bit cramped and usually needs a good clean before I can work on anything.
I thought it would be nice to show my small but efficient space so I spent the morning sweeping out the corners.

Three of my small lathes, a Unimat which I refurbished with new spindle bearings and added a quick change tool post to.
The Guilder model maker lathe, also a refurbish which I've posted in another thread, and a Swiss made, Star watchmakers/Jewelers lathe complete with case and accessories.

A Powermatic Millrite, also shown in a thread last year when I moved it into my shop.

and here's the view looking from the door towards the back of the shop.

The little guy looking back at you is Eldon, he's about a year old.

What a wonderful shop Bill.

I am sure you have had many hours of joy in this space.

Thank you for sharing the pictures.
