Put the control on the front panel (where the “T” is)

I put 3mm thick clear flexi-glass to keep flying chips off the floor.

I put them side by side, so they keep each other in company, while I am not there

Here I keep lathe tools and stuff.

As organize it gets, no matter what I do…

Thank you John, Steve, Smile
when the space is limited, then it is hard to get organized, things end up top of each other. could be organized better of course, but instead of spending time on tiddy up - takes hours-, I rather machine. Rotfl

That is a very neat and tidy shop you have there Unal. Well organized and well stocked too! It looks like you have been at it for some time with that collection of goodies.

I just wish my shop was HALF as clean as yours! Bash

Very nice job on the lathe motor upgrade also. Well done! Smiley-eatdrink004

Thank you Willie, Smile
But, I know it is a mess… Blush Actually, this is not the way it should be, I think.
I envy people who take the end mill or drill or cutter, out of the box, uses and after done, carefully cleans and put it back in the box and put the box back where it belongs. Thumbsup I have seen some guys like that. But I like everything under my hand ready to use in flash, (like somebody is chasing me into to hurry.). If I could only keep things off Bash the benches which are not in every moment use, than it could be “cool”,. Cool
I think we all are in full “at-tension” while working, when done, instead of putting everything away, we sit and look at the piece we just done and enjoy the moment and rest a bit, rather than picking stuff back up. Than we see something could be better, than get up to fix it. That means new tools and stuff on the bench… and that goes on and on… and on…
So nobodies shop is “really” tidy.
I don’t know for sure… though, maybe, I is the only hook in the shop does that.
