I will try to do a new video this weekend of my shop...I just haven't had the time...& most of my engines are not displayed, they're all on shelves many buried behind others.

Patience is a virtue that say....its been two years Bruce  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D

Better late than never? Here is the machine shop corner (the race car, a Formula Ford, has since departed), and the rest of the mess. [ Guests cannot view attachments ] [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

First things first . What is that empty space to the left of the red tool cabinet and in front of the scroll saw . I have vaguely heard it referred to as floor space and i thought it was mythical?

The other thing of interest has two wheel and is hanging up ?

Cheers

I thought this was a neat thread, but it has not been updated for a while.  Here is a short video of my basement shop.

What an absolutely fabulous workshop!
We don't have basements in Australia, how do you guys get all the heavy machinery into your basements?
Also, just in case you didn't know - you have comments turned off on your YouTube Channel.

I made a video Jim, but I had some music playing in the background & I may have to remake it if it's blocked in some areas.

G'day Bruce :) I have had the pleasure of watching this a few timeS now to take it all in (I downloaded it in case YT took it down, they can be funny sometimes with copyrighted music playing in the background).
That was an enjoyable 12 minutes of viewing.
That was a 'tour and half' and appreciated you doing it very much, and you have an AWESOME space there Bruce!
The whole time I watched it, knowing that you're now retired and how much you enjoy being in your shop (love how you guys call them shops, we just call them sheds and 'shop' sounds great!) made me really happy thinking of you tinkering away now and whiling away the hours at a much more pleasurable pace, so happy for you :)
I do wish we lived in the same area, I could imagine visiting often and having a coffee or a cold one with you in there and shooting the breeze.

Thanks again for such a terrifically detailed tour Bruce, I reckon in the near future we're going to see even more great stuff being produced out of that awesome shop mate!
