Shop Specs

  • Location: Vienna/Austria, Alabama, 40
  • Size: othsq. ft.
  • Type:
  • Focus:
  • Heating/Cooling:

I'm living in Vienna/Austria in an apartment-house (Not in Alabama ... had to choose a state ... required field).
The workshop is in the 8th floor (my apartment has 3 floors from 6th to 8th floor).
There's not really much space, so just a bandsaw, a workbench (5 ft)  and mostly handtools.

German to English (Photo 1: "Plan"):
Hobelbank ... workbench
Ablagebretter ... storage for the planes
Waschmuschel ... wash basin
Bandsäge ... bandsaw
Stauraum ... storage

The smaller the workshop, the more dispensable tools you throw away ;-)

Use it for woodworking and woodturning (small JET with extension)

First I used this box and a vacuum-cleaner: http://www.guenterra.at/Handwerken/Werkzeug_Staubsaugerzwischenbehaelter.htm
The problem: One always put things on a box, so it was too much work to empty it.

That's the new one:

Many water-pipes, hot glue. The thin pipe to the vacuum-cleaner has to be shorter than the incoming pipe (inside the big pipe).
Works fine, spare parts are easy to purchase and it's easy to empty.

Greets, Gue

I'm trying to adapt a sawdust-disposal device. I would like to know how did you do that. I have very similar space restrictions as you have (a half of a small room).
Regards,
Raúl
