My shop, well let’s see. It’s a 24 x 24 standalone with one overhead door and a man door. As for tools, I have an old Delta drill press with shop made top and fence, 2 table saws, 1 Jet super saw and an old Ryobi as a backup. The Jet has a router table w/lift on one end. I built a down draft sanding table out of an old work bench. Next to it is my 16/32 drum sander. My jointer is a 6″ Ridgid and my planer is a 13″ DeWalt. I have 4 more sanders, a Jet 9 x 36 combo, a Ridgid spindle sander, a Grizzly edge sander (I think I spend too much time sanding!), and last but not least, a 1″ belt sander. My band saw is a 18″ Jet and my chop saw is a DeWalt 12″ slider. My 2nd router table is a Bosch with a Porter Cable 7518 in it. I collect dust with a Jet dc1100. The pipe is 6″ reduced to 4″ at the tools. I build anything from cabinets to architectural details for new homes.

George’s Standalone Shop
I like seeing workshops that turns out simple things to wonderful creations! :)
Besides “…cabinets and architectural details…”, it looks like you have everything you need to build whatever you want. Nice shop.
nice workshop. It looks alive with several projects underway. Thanks for sharing.
I had great fun looking at your shop.
Thanks for sharing your layout. Nice looking equipment.
A great shop nicely laid out. Thanks for letting us have a look George.
Jim , go for the bigger shop . I spend to much time moving cabs and such to my garage as I run out of room fast in the shop. Also, I don’t have a finishing room, A big dream of mine. Thank you for the nice comment :)

Looks cozy, everything within reach. I go back and forth with the dream shop in my head on whether I would like a wide open, sprawling space or something more the size of a two car garage, like yours. I see the advantages and disadvantages of both. I hope to be forced to make that decision someday.
Awesome shop George. Thanks for sharing!

I love workshops. Every single one is different from the next. Thank you for sharing.
