Lol you expect me to post up after seeing your sweet set up. Man I need you to come over to my shop and help me out . Lol you my friend have one of the nicest cleanest tool sets I have seen. Maybe some day when I don’t have my Sons and his buddy’s use my shop it might get cleaned up but for now my tools are everywhere in the shop. I just have 3 of everything so I can find one lol.

Best damn Milwaukee 3/8" impact I have ever used. I can take my Tahoe 140 ft. lbs. torque lug nuts off with ease with this impact. 600 ft. lbs torque coming off and 450 ft. lbs. torque going on. Not an error, it is a 3/8" impact

This is a small set compared to what I had when I was in my shops. I had almost exclusively Snap On tools and between my 3 boxes I had about $80k worth of tools. Sold them a long time ago when I stopped making my living with tools and running shops. Buying tools can be addictive but what I have now is enough to be dangerous with and gets me by. If I need a specialty tool, I have a friend that runs a shop and I can borrow as needed.

I have a shop about 27 years in.. it's my whole garage. Has 3 sections to it ..woodworking, fabrication and auto. Some areas are ok clean but when one has to much stuff you tend to move things around to work in one area and then a while later move it again to work on something else... lol
I have to take some new photos, some are to large to download, I'll try breaking down photo's into smaller areas, but I think this will give you all an idea of my past time of staying sane.

These are tough acts to follow.....

I’m jealous of the dust collector I see in the one pic. I don’t do enough wood work to really justify a set up but i have also had everything in the carnage coated with fine saw dust and wished i did have one.

The dust collector is a gift from my family, 2000cfm through 3-4" ports... sure does the job. The best gift I have ever received, I'd say they were thinking about me. It hooks up to my Planers, Table saw, chop saws and under my router set up, the two stage cyclone dust collector is so awesome.

That would be so cool... The garage is 28 x 36' 10 foot ceiling and in-floor heating, my dad helped me build this garage. In the first picture on the back wall is a murphy bed, lol ..gets used once and a while .. the running joke is that this garage is the best dog house bar none lol, so when to much whisky is involved... he he
you definitely aren't seeing my shop box lol. i keep that thing organized just in my head. the new maintenance guy asked how i find anything in it after i sent him for a wrench. my only response was the harder it is for someone to find something worth stealing the better. if i remember the post ill toss some more up later.
but this is during my last cleaning and organization 2 more tool boxes behind me and am 8foot table piled with tools
if anyone is missing a flat head screw driver its because i have it lol. of all the tools i acquired i had to make a drawer just for flat head screw drivers.

That is a real question... and it has happened... so I went to my tool store and bought 10mm everything, so hopefully we'll be good for a few years until we loose em all .. ha ha
