Project Specific Thread: Welding Shops

[Jeepnford]

TS Offroad,in the picture of your tubing racks,did you bend the arms out of tube and weld to some angle or channel uprights? I need to make some for my shop and I can't tell exactly what you have,but want to copy them. Thanks.

I built my dream shop this past year. It's 100'x50' with a 100'x25' covered porch on the back side. Main shop is 22' high in the center with 16' eaves with a 3/12 pitch. Covered porch is 1/12 pitch with 14' eave height. Overhead doors on the front are 12’x12’. Rear overhead door is 14’x12’. The shop is divided into four rooms – 25’x50’, 50’x50’, 25’x38’ and 12’x25’ with a second floor. There is a 2 ton overhead lift built into the frame in my welding room. Total turn key cost (slab, building and erecting) was under $13 a square foot.

Hi Gang,This is what my wife refers to as "THE TOYBOX".I too suffer from Junkitis but now that I am retired maybe I can find the time to reorganize.The first pic is my syncro 250,shopmaster 300 and toolbox.#2 is hacksaw,drillpress,frame drill,2050 plasma cutter and aircompressor. #3 is shelving and alot of junk I don't know what else to do with,the stove is one I grabbed out the junk to heat cast iron. The building is 30' by 40' withe a 12' by 14' door.

I sure did! - 1.75" x .120 DOM round and 2" x 2" x.120 square tube. I like 'em because they hug the wall nicely and have no sharp corners or ends sticking out to bang against.

And here is my dream come true, 40 x 64 with 14ft. side wall. One 18x12 roll up. Second picture is of the main work bench area. I also like to try to clean up at night, but it don't always happen.

So I'm curious why you, and SSS, haven't shown any pics. Since SSS started the thread and all.

I will take some, had to go on vacation first. You know, most important things first Maybe take some next couple of days. Got a new digital camera so will have to see how it does. Some of the guys on here really have some neat shops, cool equipment and trucks.
