In our April poll we asked “How Are You Spending Your Time at Home?” and the most popular answer was Working on Shop Improvements (28.97%). This month we’re wondering, what those shop improvements are?
Whether it’s as simple as sweeping all of the dust you’ve created or as intricate as applying The Down to Earth Woodworker’s 5S program to your shop, whatever it is, we hope you’re enjoying your shop and making projects that will last a lifetime!
And if there is an improvement you’ve made in your shop that isn’t listed, please add it as ‘other’ or list it in the comments!
