Thumbs up

It looks like the machine shop I worked in as a teenager. Except it didn't have a gas pump.

Half Scale...

Your shop is amazing...Mine is a pit in the basement of my house..My wife does not go in there in fear of infectuos diseases....

I took a photo of it and could not post it...I did some cleaning and found some tools and stuff that were missing for several years...I also found a neat model 36 that I forgot I had..

I hope to post a photo sometime in April after some serious work down there..

Man, you are organized..and an inspiration to us low sloboes..

Thanks for the compliments...they are appreciated!!!

I prefer a clean and "somewhat" organized shop atmosphere when building my guns. I can loose enough stuff in a clean shop, can't imagine what all i would loose in a cluttered one.

This will be my retirement hideaway...someday...hopefully!!

Anyway...here is the workbench area...i forgot to include it above.

Default Under Construction.... Father's Day '07.

Here's mine being built and partially stocked. This is the inside of the walk-in vault.



Settling in....



The Reloading Area being set up...





These days it's brimming over again, and I think I need to add more space.....

you guys all have nice caves...maybe one day I will have one...probally not as nice as yours.
I do have a pretty nice wood working shop, but it is so messy right now there is no way I would post a picture of it.

Bummer, nice catch on the shaper, you were close, it is actually an Ammco Shaper. Found it at a sale a few years back in Pa., complete with original worklight, indexing head, and owers manual.

I'm not into that "man cave" stuff, it sounds too...well you know.

I still prefer the old terminology of "pig sty", and I'm not going to post a photo of it because my camera is lost in it somewhere.

Forgive me Joe. I was just pullin' the collective leg,so to speak. I have no idea to whom that room belongs. But if you're contemplating building something similar,you're my hero!
