I would like to thank everyone that gave me some ideas. I am sure I will make a few changes.
Here is what I have: 8 foot rod wrapper Seperate area for drying handle Seperate area for mixing epoxy I know gave a lathe for turning rod handles and that is set up in the garage. The lathe bench is portable to take the dust outside. 4-4 foot lights with daylight bulbs for plenty of good light. Cabinets to keep my guides and stuff organized. Bucket with PVC to organize ice fishing blanks. I will try to post pictures. Now it us time to get to work. Good day, Doug See you on the water, Doug Captain Paddlefoot Re: Workshop done

Doug,
Great looking work on your shop. I see that you have a chop saw under your lathe. If you pick up an abrasive cut off wheel, and replace the blade on your chop saw with it, you will have a great tool for trimming blanks, cutting arbors, etc. [www.homedepot.com] The wheels from Grainger - "abrasive tool room cut off wheel" is a much better wheel, since it is only .060 thick. This thinner wheel makes a very clean cut and wastes less material on the cut. [www.grainger.com]$ Re: Workshop done

Doug,
This was one of the first "chop saws" that I modified for chopping blanks and other materials. Since an abrasive wheel wears down over time, I elevated the cutting surface by installing a 2X4 channel on the bed. Then, I installed a piece of stock just behind the center line of the saw wheel to use as a back plate for cutting. After installing, just ran the saw down through the materials to make a thin clean cut for a nice tight fit and no issues about material falling into a hole in the saw. I happened to pick up this saw used at a used tool shop for $20. This has one of the Grainger "tool room cut off wheels" installed on it. By the way, I have cut all materials on this saw, graphite, steel, aluminum, brass etc. etc. [www.rodbuilding.org] I added the halogen light for great viewing when using the saw. Be safe Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
