Woodworking shops can always be improved. This volume offers a broad range of clever ideas and smart options for shop layout, tool and material storage, workstations, and other shop accessories.

For over 30 years, woodworkers have turned to "Fine Woodworking" magazine for advice about setting up a small woodworking shop and this book collects the best workshop articles from the last 15 years. The examples chosen represent the most common type of home or small professional shop in garages, basements, small outbuildings as well as some unusual locations. Many of the articles include floor plans and drawings. Also included is advice on organising the shop, lumber and tool storage, integrated workstations and installing essential shop systems.

This volume draws on the success of its idea generating predecessor "The Writer's Idea Book" and takes readers to the next step--assessing their ideas and growing them into finished pieces.
