Basement Shop
My hand tool storage. I picked up the peg board at a yard sale for $1 a sheet and bought 10 sheets so I have used a lot of it. I am planning a tool cabinet as my next project.
In my previous house I had to work in a double garage and really got tired of moving tools around. So when we moved I found a house with an unfinished basement so I could have dedicated space.
This is it’s normal “between project” state. I am not very fussy about cleaning during projects but between projects it always gets a good clean.

My band saw a Craftsman 12-inch which is fine. And other storage. I have french cleats holding all my storage items so I can move them if needed.

Drill press and Triton wood storage.

A ridgid granite top table saw, delta 6-inch jointer at the back is router table with a Triton 2 1/4 hp router and a Steel City dust collector. I grouped them like that to run the dust collection pipes easier. I have all the blast gates between the saw and the collector. Ridgid thicknesser.

Man after my own heart,have about the same sq ft and like it kept clean. Nice set up
I worked in a mess when I had to work from a garage. So now I make an effort to keep it clean. Woodwork should be fun and a pleasure and for me it cannot be than when I am constantly looking for tools and having to work around a mess.
I also find I do better work working in a clean shop than when it is a mess.
I have the same table saw. I like it a lot, just try not to use it as an assembly table (granite chips). My shop is a 12x20 outbuilding that I built. It is on a slop in my yard so obviously it is up on footings with one end higher off the ground than the other. The 425lbs of this table saw has caused a significant sag in the joists that I am currently having to replace and reinforce. I am putting in twice as many and doubling them up now.
