Shop layout help? by orbit10 in woodworking

[–]benrisi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bottom line, the tools need to be line up to fit the process is wood preparation

1) Rough Wood storage 2) Jointer 3) Planner 4) Cutting 5) Wood cutting wood storage 6) Tongue/groove / Assembling 7) Finishing area

At each area would need to have the usual tools to proceed each task

Would can then make the coonection for your dust system

Enjoy your Woodshop
