Hello All,
I am new to the forum as of recent and figured I would jump right in and get some ideas floating around for a new project I recently started. For those of you that don't know, I am a college student right now and am patiently waiting for my LTC at this time. I wanted a place at the house (aside from the kitchen table) to work on the shotguns and rifles and hopefully build up a few guns in the future. My dad goes on a trip to Florida every year to golf for a week and this year I decided I would clean/redo his workshop while he was gone. Partly because he needs the shop to be done over and partly so I can find myself a nice area to work in . I took pictures of the shop today and you can see everything he has in there. The benches are staying put but aside from that I am open to idea on how to set up the shop. I am sure a few of you have nice work areas at your own houses so lets hear what you think works best. I had the idea to utilize the space underneath the bench to store toolboxes, drills, hand saws, routers, etc. I was also thinking about buying a Craftsman 5 drawer organizer to put all the screwdrivers, wrenches, etc in. Lets get some ideas going!

PS - The pictures are a side by side of the workshop. I am standing against a garage door looking at the shop so you can almost imagine the two pictures side by side and that is the whole shop.
