And yeah, a shop needs a safe.

Hell, it looks like all the good vises may be just down the road from you! Mag250 has the goods, wherever The Moon, Texas may be. Road trip? Central Texas? Beer, BBQ, money, vises?? I’m in. You and Mag? Subway, Derek, Chris, Kent, Cycul Ranch, ride day...talking myself into something.Laughing

You Can’t ever have too much bench space
mines pretty basic and kinda ugly but that huge bench is great for storage which comes in handy for both moto and drilling equipment lol
Funny thing to me. It stuck out instantly to me after years of carpet and upholstery work. The Matrix and 3m bottles in the middle. Were you in the carpet business?

Dream setup would be really good LED lighting, epoxy floor, tons of cabinets, stainless steel workbench, parts cleaner and vapor blaster, scissor lift bike stand.
This is a great start! Though, I'd go with a vinyl tile floor; much less likely to damage parts if you drop them. Also, a scope is super handy.

It was somewhat of a freebie so I couldn't complain too much about a broken pipe jaw, missing clamp bolt or the fact that they WELDED IT TO THE FRIGGEN BENCH!!!!Sad

Go to a "re-store" shop(that takes used appliances etc) and see if they have any 2nd hand kitchen cabinets, use those for your cabinets and 2 sheets of super thick ply wood for the counter top, cover with rad stickers and wola.......
Great idea. I'm about to build out a 3 car garage (after my epoxy coating gets installed) and I'm going to do this
