The glimpse I get of your shop make me feel scared and twitchy. How can you work in that??????
I'm still trying to figure out how he stacks his cutting boards up to clamp them, because there isn't a clean surface big enough to glue up a cutting board and clamp it in there.

Honestly Colin, right now I can't get anything done. I'm messy all the time, but this is worse than it's ever been. I really don't know where to start other to to start throwing stuff out, there's just too much and no room. That's on tap for this weekend. Tony
Get a storage pod for the stuff to keep. Yard sale or donate the rest....
Then you can clean up and make a storage shelving unit....
Thats what I'm doing this spring.....
I'm going to take a crap ton of stuff and donate it to the Habitat for Humanity stores here, hopefully they can do some good and help some folks with it.
The official "blue lighter for scale" has multiple uses.....

Man Colin, I've been trying to get a clean shop like Tony for a year. The misses has finally gotten to me. Been burning curly Sugar Maple all week, some spalted, lots with sugar bush stains and some blistered. Just not worth my time to try to mill up and hoch. Its hard choosing what goes. I think the Siberian Elm is next...

I hate coming back into my shop after being away for a few days and walking into a mess that I need to clean before I can work. I always sweep and vacuum the entire shop and put all my toys away before I leave at the end of each day so that I come back to a clean shop the next time. It's just the way I roll.
You're too skinny to roll, now as for some of us....

Man it really sucks to hear people throwing wood away! I wish I was able to drive to y'all's place and take it off your hands. "burning curly Sugar Maple, Siberian Elm" REALLY!? How far do you live from me? 
Just think of all the woodworking time you are losing if you quit early to put all your tools and spend time to get them all out before you can start.

I hear you Eric, for myself, maybe, but I'm talking in the rough, not milled. I have little tools, so my time is not worth making great stock without a decent turnaround. I have no market, thus make more money in other ways... There are many that can quickly offer the same here for better prices.
