Ok nobody else (except Pho) has showed there shops so I thought I would start a tread! here is my Temp setup (soon the 18 year old moves out and I get his old room) Oh I just finished cleaning up the shop so I normally does not look this good!  Rock storage (well one place anyway)  The tumblers and saw- plus a small work area  Grit storage and some more rock- plus any what nots!  the saw area (notice the saw covered with junk- hmm I new I forgot to clean something)  The temp grinding area (It's My Band D workmate under there)  And a side view of the grinding area! Damn theres a lot of junk in this basement! |

What's the coffee filters for? I don't even dare take
a picture of mine, if I really had to look at how messy
it is, I'd have to clean it then I'd never find anything.

I don't really need to post up pictures of my tumbling area... just picture two 3lb tumblers on the floor, under a chair in a jam packed storage room, with 2 boxes on top of the chair... one box for rocks and another for grits.

My photos are in Docs shop pics, in photos. You are definately ahead of me, and I am in public view all day long. At least the little clutter you show is humble indeed.

Ok the coffee filters are used to filter (seperate) water from slurry (I reuse slurry mud in difficult batches or for other projects that don't require real grit (i.e glass). The yogurt containers hold Grits, do-overs, pellets, polish, rocks, fossils, more rocks, and sometimes Yogurt! Sorry about the first pic- I checked it on my camera and it is the same way!!!! I don't know how I did that???

Can't show a picture of my shop. My grinder and trim saw is in the kitchen, my tumblers are in the laundry room, My grit, etc. is in the back bedroom/plant room, my rocks are outside and when my slab saw gets here, it will have to go outside in the shed. Not real convenient, but it works.

Those are great set ups, as soon as my dad gets my saw/grinder/buffer full set up I will get pictures up of that as well as my tumbling area.
