[Milsurplus] workshop

[Ray Fantini]

Organization and good work practices are key. But I don't know about everyone else but my issue is and has always been space, no matter how big you build the shop it fills up. Any external storage space also. The last several years have been using equipment racks and the like but they still fill. Only thing I can recommend is using carts for working on things, maybe some of you people are content to work on small radios like ARC-5 receivers and the like but I have noticed that in the last couple years have been migrating towards entire systems or big large heavy stuff and the cart is ideal for rolling things from storage to the workshop or around the shop to different locations or just out of the way for a while. Harbor Freight has metal work carts but I have been lucky finding old AV carts that were built back in the day before plastic AV carts that are common today.
Another note, it's a good idea to have storage and work spaces at grade level. Dragging equipment up and down steps can be a real drag.
