You haven't reached critical mass until you start hauling it up to the attic. Of course that comes after you start putting it up between the floor joists if you have a basement shop. Or so I've heard!

Just be aware that if a fire were to get started, a lot more damage might be the result because of all the things on the floor that will impede movement. From a 23 year part time firefighter/EMT.

woodturning is worse

Gotta get some shelves. And label and date everything. And weigh the wet wood to know when it's dry.

This is maybe 1/4 of it, if that. I've added more shelves and massively reorganized since these photos. And I still can't stop processing more wood.

Chances of turning all this before I kick the bucket is zilch, zero, nada. And I keep processing new turning blanks from green wood.

And then a new woodturning tool follows me home - will hold a 1000 lb log by the end, waist high to cut chunks without back strain. Where will it all end?

(BTW, my next bandsaw class on how to do this safely at home is this Tuesday.)

As soon as I get my U-Haul truck booked send me your address. I won't be able to talk since I plan on loading your wood at about 3AM!

Lovely, well-organized, stock of turning wood!!

Time to open a Store! Where and when? P

There's the on-going woodworking discussion about whether to store boards flat or on end. I've found that on-end is the way to store cut-offs and shorts. It makes it easier to sort through. :

My general rule is : the smaller the piece is, the more figure it has to have to keep it.
