Hi, I am new to this forum. I have been self employed as a welder for over 15 yrs. I have built projects in a field and borrowed and rented friends shops. I now am almost finished building my own shop. 50 x 80 x 14 with 3 phase.
I am wanting to see your shop so I can see how and where you place tools and keep it organized. Thanks for any help you can provide.
Attached is a pic of my shop almost finished, and some boat docks I have built and one with stairs.

50x80 sounds like a fortune to heat. I'd love that much space, but I don't know that I could stomach the utility bills.

Invison 354MP

And more machinery than you can shake a 7018 rod at

Nice start on your new shop.
Your dock projects appears to be very high end work.
You may get some ideas here:

Lots of factors involved in setting equipment. Everyones needs are different and dimension and door locations are something you are kind of stuck with once it happens. A big factor is where the power comes in and I remember thinking I had some definite plans, don't be scared to change things, I still move something if it works better. I don't have any benches along walls, thats where equipment goes, I like as much floor space as open as it can be.

Man, I would love to have a big place like that ....
you can see my little place here ... 4 cams ... one covers the work area, one the front door, one the Bunker interior, and the 4th the outside of my shop area. It is here http://jimyo.psend.com/cam2.html
if you want to see the "lounge in my shop, then go here ... http://jimyo.psend.com/bunker.html
Of course, I just do little stuff but more space would be nice..
Jim
