My 'relocated' Shop

Here is a couple of pictures of my relocated equipment into what was my wood working shop. So far so good. The bench is tight but I'm going to put a plywood top on my table saw that can fill in as extra bench space if need be. On another note, I got some of those cheap magnets from HF and put them on the right side of the grinder. They do a decent jog of catching some of the metal dust off the belt. I'm planning on using the kiln this weekend, if nothing else just to temper some blades.
The AC is worth comprising on some bench space :)

 
Looks clean and safe, and not full of a lot of extra junk, like mine. Jon mentioned your floor mats and then I had to look back and noticed how clean the floor was. Just for the pic, right? just kidding. Myself, I have tons of stuff "I'm gonna need later" cluttering up.

Just curious, how deep is your bench? Your grinder fits well on it.

I want to say it's 24" deep but I'll verify tomorrow. These pictures were taken during the setting up process. I've rearranged power cords and re-did the peg board to store the more necessary items.
I had just swept the floor :). You should see it now, I actually vacuumed it. I also picked up a new shop vac. After watching the discipline Slavik Tely demonstrated on his videos, I'm trying to keep a cleaner shop.

thanks, I'm wondering what to build in my workspace as its pretty narrow. I might be in the market for a grinder in a few months and my space I have will play into what I buy/build either upright or square wheel.

That's a nice size shop mine is small and narrow but glad to have it.I will post picks of mine
after I hang the new lights.
 
I am looking forward to the winter, my shop is well insulated so a little forging will save me from turning the heat on.
 
I cant concieve of being in such a clean space as that. My shed gets a thorough clean out about once a year but I (usually) know where everything is and can get to it when needed. Just over 800 sq ft and when I get some time after this present batch of knives I am going to rearange things by welding up some shelving units from 1 1/2 angle iron and heavy planks.
