    I really like your setup, everything is very organized. I like the way you have your bins set up, I dont have enough space but hopefully one day i can do the same. Ill have to take some pictures of mine later today when i go out.

    That is a nice setup. I also like the organization. Saves a lot of time looking for tools.

    After seeing your photos of your shop I refuse to post any photos of my mess, ever. Mike.

    Believe me, there would be huge demand for such a service. My dad could use a little remedial training too.

    Actually, now that I think of it, my own desk looks pretty chaotic. We all need you!

    I'm with ya on that, Mike. I thought all "Yunkmen" had to be messy. I'll have to reassess my visions, but I'm NOT shaving my beard. LOL

    Kudos to you, spinroch.
