Fixgasm (Part III?)

I’m unsure if this counts as a proper fixgasm, but I finally got around to framing out and paneling a closet that for a long time was hidden behind the old wall panels. But let’s assume for a moment the closet was already framed out and paneled. Then putting some shelving in definitely counts as a fixgasm.

Yes, I have mostly black and yellow branded tools. No, they aren’t a sponsor.

This closet was, up until this very day, a receptacle for the detritus of the workshop. Clamps, offcuts and various oddments were piled up, leaning against the wall. So with floor to ceiling storage (these metal rack units work great for closet shelving), I have now emptied two (!) different smaller storage units that take up floor space in the overflow room. Getting rid of those smaller storage units will allow me to move things around a bit, which will free up more room.

And then it cascades until I might finally create a direct path from the handtool shop to the thickness planer in the overflow room.

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

  1. Congrats. I recently did a virtual shop tour to the local woodworking club I belong to. A big part of the driver was to clean up the shop. The bench where I work is normally clean and organized. However, I have had this 6 foot card table for 5 years that was full of junk. There was also another 6 foot card table full of junk as a landing pad when you got out of the car. Both of those are now gone. I completely understand your satisfaction. If you want to finish, I am sure your local woodworking group would love to have you give a shop tour.
