The workshop is currently located in the basement garage of a typical surburban home.  The main workbench is built around the inside of the partial octagon of the foundation for the room above.  The workbench is 44" high in order to prevent bending over while doing detail work. Epoxy floor paint covers the work surface to make cleanups easier.  The walls surrounding the bench are clad with pegboard to keep frequently used tools and materials at hand.  Removable parts bins on the right side hold nuts, bolts and washers; organized by relative size to keep search time to a minimum.  A bookshelf above holds workshop manuals, parts catalogs, and back issues of Grassroots Motorsports magazine. Under the bench, a pull out drawer below the center section helps with storage while a series of multi-drawer plastic storage cabinets to the left keep invoices, receipts, decals, etc. organized.

Hand tools are stored in two roll away units.  A garage sale wooden dresser serves as the base cabinet for one chest.  After painting with red epoxy, replacing the wooden knobs with steel loop handles, replacing the scalloped lower front facia with a straight board, and mounting it on casters, the end result looks very convincing.  A floor standing drill press equiped with a machinist vise shoots straight holes.  The workshop is heated and air conditioned and there is a remote control stereo, satellite TV, and wireless telephones to make the time here more enjoyable.  A growing collection of automobilia and racing art is displayed on the walls.
