Shop Tools

Looking at door from miter station

The Building

Free standing on the SE area of our 1 acre lot. Wood stick construction, 26' x 28' with 2-roll-up doors, and an entry door. Comp (new) roof and an attic thermo controlled exhaust fan.


The inside is served with a mini-split HVAC system with remote control. All lighting is LED. Electrical service is a drop straight from power pole at 200A with a UFER ground. The building is old and has the existing concrete floor which is fairly level. The shop is insulated and has Sheetrock and paint.


While re-building the workshop, compressed air line were installed with several outlets and an Oneida Dust Cyclone was installed with 4" PVC piing throughout the shop. Twp WEN air filtration modules hang from the ceiling.


The Lazy i philosophy, inspired by Mrs. Lazy i, dictates that when possible, buy quality equipment, second-hand if possible. This mean lots of garage sales, estate sales and internet ads. Lucky for the Lazy i, the Mrs. loves all of these shopping methods!

Big Tools
