Workshop, garage, playground, ect. Where you build things.
Tool Storage... This seems like a place for a garage/shop thread.
Please post pics and descriptions of your work area. Any special things you've done to keep things organized, efficient, or just cool. I'll start with my old garage. It's nothing too special, but it worked.
I revamped this garage in 2008. I had 3 goals: keep it affordable, keep the temp regulated, keep it functional as a 2 car garage while maximizing storage and workspace. My biggest concern was keeping the price down, so I did everything (insulation, drywall, tape/mud/texture, shelving myself). It worked for many years and I was able to do some pretty decent work there... and now I've moved. I will post my newest space soon.

Whats the big wet spot? Maybe I shouldn't ask. Your new shop is multiple times better. The people deserve to see it. Ill post pics up of my transforming work area next time I unfold it.

It was winter and the big wet spot was from one of my cars dripping excitement that it was allowed to be parked inside. My new work area is nice yes, but I miss having an accessible 2 car :(
Pics soon

If I had half a clue what all that equipment was Chad, I would have exactly .5 clue. Nice work space!

Re: Workshop, garage, playground, ect. Where you build things.
1 rackspace top is just a placeholder for the switch that turns on the contactors for the audio rig and a balanced output from the DSP.
2 rackspace under that is a panel that has the muting/mode switching for the DSP via control voltage and the VCA controls for the DSP, and a spare set of 1/4" inputs that the second VCA knob controls. (homebrew jobbie)
after that a parasound DA converter
1 space unit below that a Shure P4800 DSP 4 in 8 out and takes all the switches/VCA info from the above panel.
Then amps
1 Carver PM175 for garage speakers
1 Crown CT410 for JBL mains
1 Clair/Carver PM1.5M for sub
below that is a 13.8V linear supply for the ham radio shit
Then the bottom unit is a UPS for the computers (2) Networking gear, and some lighting, it runs off of 3 batteries parked behind the mess.
Here's the DSP and Panel without the spare inputs wired/mounted yet.

Sure beats "shit on the switch." it is on the first switch with the Variac so if shit gets out of hand I can kill the AC power without reaching over the device blowing fire to unplug it ;)
The knob on the variac is labeled "HEET."
