Either that or your trying to show us that you found some real, live empty space. That doesn't exist in most shops not found in magazines.

Sure does look

>I have some kind of rodent in my shop (a RAT, mayhap?) that I can't seem to catch. I'll bet your buddy could catch it for me.

Btw, It doesn't look like it is hiding. It's right out there for everyone to see. ;>)

Yup, that's it!

Stephen was the first one to get it!

This space has been occupied by various toolboxes/chests/cabinets over the past few years, and just recently I came up with a design that consist of nothing more than a bunch of rectangular drawers of various depths. I had a brainstorm Saturday that they would fit under and on top off another bench that I had. They didn't quite fit, so I spent my shop time yesterday rebuilding it, and this a.m. I moved all the drawers into and onto it, and WH-LA!!!! A few square feet of free space was found. :~)

So, the only question that remains now, is now that I've found it, how do I get rid of it? Ooooooooooooo the possibilities. ;~)

As for what some thought was a snake, that is infact the 4 mm plastic vapor barrier plastic sheeting that I have between the concrete floor and the plywood.

Vic, in your defense, I saw a post like this several years ago and I didn't see the empty space either, because at that time I had no shop. You must have a lot of open space still, otherwise I'm sure you would of seen it too. It sure jumped out at me.
