Cleaning

Ever reach that point of frustration with the condition of your workspace, that you have to drop everything and clean right then and there? Yeah, that happened today.

Er...you guys should probably ask what happened to the crap on the workbench before inviting me to go all Marie Kondo on your stuff:

A lot of it got put away properly or thrown out as appropriate, but a lot of the rest just got moved to the nearest flat space, namely, the robotics/computer table. I'll get that cleaned up once exams are over, but I just couldn't take the workbench as it was any longer.

That's a symptom of more things than places to put them. Don't ask how I know.

Re: Cleaning

LOL I had to clean off part of the 10'x8' table in the workshop room to mix paint on.
I also blew the dust off the 20' work bench in the bay part of the garage to try and keep the dirt out of the paint I will spray in a bit.

As they say any flat spot (cars) that does not move in a week or more becomes a shelf.
I have 2 of them, 1 in the far bay in my garage, has truck parts on it and the other in the house garage, this one only has the glass from that car on it so not too bad.

If it makes you or anyone else feel better I can get pictures later of my messy table & bench LOL
BTW I bet you now can find anything

Re: Cleaning

So you don't feel so bad here is my mess.
Work shop / storage room table.

And the work bench down 1 wall in the bay area.

I don't see me cleaning either one soon just the area I need to work in.

That's only 1 side of my 3 bay garage.
The other side right now is covered in plastic for painting but is covering a car, a few AMC motors & autos, some of the parts truck parts and my sons things from his apt.
It's not pretty
