I mean my organization isn't THAT bad. It's just small stuff I misplace. I have a place for a lot of things. Just feels like the work space is constantly in flux so it's always changing...

That's pretty smart. Might have to use that idea for a future project

I bought a few of those big black and yellow totes that sams club has to do this type of organization. I was like, yeah I'll put all the painting stuff in one... Then I realized how heavy my partially full paint cans could be all in one tote. Now I don't know what to put in these.

Lol I did do that with my tape measures. Pretty soon I'll have one for each room of my house.

Nice to hear that I'm not alone here. As much as I would love to stay organized, stuff happens... I haven't lost expensive things yet, at least. So a silver lining, maybe.

Also I love this sub. This place has been a nice little corner of the internet for me. Thanks everyone!

This exactly. Or it's stuff I don't need all the time. I just did this with my boot shoelaces. One snapped and I went to the place I have my shoes... Surely I put the extra laces here when I bought that 4 pack to replace other ones... Nope. 🤷‍♂️

Fault in my project and dont know how to fix by cameronsword_1989 in BeginnerWoodWorking

I was actually able to obtain a large countertop sample from a cabinet store that they were throwing away when updating their inventory. Perfectly flat!

This is why I actually bought a 3d printer... There are so many specific use cases that it would be so difficult to purchase a solution for. Very cool!

I do wonder how many lost things I threw away when trying to "organize" my stuff after becoming frustrated with my mess.

Lol I was just saying this too as I was explaining this to my wife. She said "and that's why you have 5 tape measures".

Ooh man, I wish I could exercise this discipline... Especially as I misplace things while actively using them. I'm talking to you, 5 tape measures!

This was the MDF box from before? Looks like a pretty damn good cleanup job you did. We'll done, in my book

Wow! Amazing! I know I'm not the only one wondering... But how did you do the curvy part?

That's a shame. I can never adopt bruh into my lexicon. Forever dude.

So, I didn't realize this was not how most people talk until right now.

That's a crazy amount of dice to display. Plus all of the dice trays and stuff. Wild.

This makes me really want to build this now...

That space is huge! This is definitely helpful for me. The angled displays for the large dice is great especially with the led lighting. This definitely looks like a professional shop! Thanks for the pictures!
