I’m still figuring out my workflow in my shop areas. Currently I share my bench between my two hobbies, trains and woodworking. They share the bench, but have separate storage adjacent.
multipurpose 6’ bench.
A recycled anesthesia cart for the woodworking hand tools.
An old microfilm cabinet provides 36” deep, full extension drawers to hold the train specific tools and spare rolling stock.
On the other side of the wall is a dedicated 13’x19’ power tool shop with dust collection. Keep most the dust in a separate area that way. Storage in that room uses a French cleat wall, recycled upper cabinets and some peg boards.
During the lock down I built a separate work desk for the trains. It’s a laminated hard maple desk. But, the wife reminded me I promised to build her a scrapbook table, so I lost the desk and the space.
I’m back to using one bench for two hobbies.
