Getting to the point, that BEFORE I can do anything else on them projects....

Something needs to be done about this mess....

Things keep trying to walk off the edge....about half of this mess will go back into the tool chest..

Also, was getting tired of chasing the handbroom around.   new keepers to keep the saws from rattling...

Here we go..first was to box up a few planes...

Stanley 45.   have to tear it down, to pack up...close the lid...

Placed in the big tool chest..next..

Stanley No. 71-1/2    Just sit down in the box..

Close and latch the lid...placed on top of the Stanley 45's box in the tool cabinet...next...

3 for 1 sale..... tear down the Wards 78, set the Auburn #181 into it's holder..

Close the lid, place over on a shelf...next?

Old OEM box for the Stanley 45...is now the home of the Dremel kit...slid this back out of the way...

At least that door clears, when I go after a hand plane....didn't stay there for long, though

Before it was back in use...bench looks a little better?  C clamps have their own storage rack..

MIGHT have enough of these...never know....

 

And..NOW..I can get back to work....

And in 1/2 hour repeat of first two photos. 

I think he needs more cabinets and boxes. Linda like clamps can never have too many.

Or less tools.....

I know how you feel.  Seems the more space I create the more mess I make.

 

It's a Biotch when you have to re-organize after your re-organization scheme.

Yeah, more than once I have built a nice organized something or another.  Then some time later thought hey why not do this and put it here?  Yeah well maybe because we already did that not long ago???  

I will put this here so I can find it next time. One week later......where did I put that darn thing ???

EXACTLY.   After 20+ years I broke down and started labeling the drawers.

Yes that is why I have to put labels when I reorganize . Then there is the space made just for what you have now and you are given something that "needs" to go in the same area, but no space there.

Ah yes, the vicious circle.   Just sent a 8 inch Delta Drill Press off with @Cal for his son.  BECAUSE???  It would not fit where it needed to go.  And really, why did I need 3 drill presses???  

 I haven't gotten to the labeling point yet because I still do enjoy a good search & find.

Some efforts are more successful than others. 

In the old shop, all the drawers were labeled rather permanently. That's gonna change with this new shop. Like Gunny, it'll be tape and magic marker.
