Nice Mike; good luck with it.

Neat--o Mike! I like you style !!

[franky]

Very nice. 

Those deep pockets along the side is good for holding your pliers, screwdrivers, etc... to keep the work area clear.  That shelf next to the work table is also good for stacking all the reels that need to be worked on.  Couple shelves for those needing service and the other two shelves for completed reels for pick up.

Thank You all  for the good words. I wanted something that would last a long time.

That's a nice work station! It even looks to be better organized than Fred's  , but you need to make a trip to the tool store.

LOL, but fred's workshop is like disneyland for any reel repair head

......but you need to make a trip to the tool store. 

I have that covered amigo and as well they are into a mobile station aka toolbox, all the tools I need for normal maintenance and basic repairs are inside this toolbox

I have that same table for my temporary lathe bench, it works and it's cheep . But I have to build a better bench for my milling machine or move in the basement . I know Ruth is wishing I would move in the basement......................Joe

  But Alex I dont see a big hammer in your mobile tool box. Every tool box needs a "BIG" hammer.  Especially for Shimanos.  Every Shimano that needed the the "BIG" hammer never again needed any work. It's really an amazing thing... Jeff

I dont know how BIG you want the hammer to see it but its there compadre, it was covered with other tools, and your right about shimanos I have to use it more times than I though I would, its there for the finesse touch for shimanos
sorry for hijack the thread

LOL, I know what you mean, my wife want me to have some spare rooms built on the 2nd floor and move my things (with me included)  there!!

That is really nice, Mike!  

You know, that is actually going to be considered furniture, and will need to be kept clean / polished..

[Edit: The thread is old enough, Mike needs to post a current pic..]

My space is in the garden shed, which I kind of like, as does the SO. Kerosene, Simple Green, and vinegar actually stink. So does grease.    I'd just assume not hear about it.

At least it has a granite worktop! I clean that periodically. I could even cook dinner out there if I wanted.

I have always been a carrier of the Penndicitus virus, but lately it has been severely inflamed, maybe terminal.
