After too many years on concrete floors I was finally able to build my retirement shop. It incorporates a lot of things I missed in my previous, more industrial style shops. For one, it has a wood floor over a three foot crawl space. That gives me happier feet, underfloor wiring and dust collection, and a cool dark place to store precious veneer.
I still have a couple of small anti-fatigue mats in places I stand a lot but I also have a really comfortable stool that I use a lot.
The early bird gets the worm but its the second mouse that gets the cheese.
