Ok in the final throes of deciding how the new shop will be layed out.



My thoughts at the present time are arranging the flow of material in the shop.

IE:



Dirty component comes in => Disassembled => Parts washer=>drying/staging rack=> Bead Blaster (If needed)=> Storage => Painting/Powder Coating => Storage until needed.





Anyone else have anyb thoughts?

That is an excellent idea.



Whoa, I used to have an '80 X1/9

I know it may be in the parts washer section but how about a parts dipper, you know that solvent stuff to looses up really stubborn grease, that way things can soak, then you can finish it up in the washer.. Oh and you gotta have a fridge..



Don't forget safety stuff like a metal cabinet for flammables and metal bins for soaked rags as they can spontaneously combust ..



oh yeah how bout a polishing station, for that extra shine..

Fridge is covered.



Good point on the dipper, I already have a 1 Gallon Berryman dipper. I wouls LIKE the big 5 gallon one to do rotors in.



Oiley rag can will be purchased soon.



I have the basics for BLING-BLING. Just need big $$$$$ for a decent BALDOR buffer

Flammable storage: An old fridge is a stop-gap excellant cost effective storage. The proper UL listed Flammable Storage Lockers start at $400.



I also have a good extinguisher, need a couple more though
