Couldn't take it anymore.

I had to get this shed cleaned up, seems like every winter it goes to hell and I have to give it a good cleaning. There use to be another bench along the wall in the last pic but I removed it to make room for another cub now that I have the 100. That's my oldest son and he's supposedly helping.

One more with a cub in it.

I mean since you're already in the cleaning spirit, I have a 100 footer you could start in?

Hey, every shop get's messy if you're working in it.
My "problem" is I won't come in the house unless I clean up after each day. So I get to start a new mess the next day.
The wife tells me I'm OCD, but I call it organized. And unlike her, I know where everything is the next day, not stumbling around wondering what I did with ???
Good thing is, you don't have to paint in there, then you'd have a real mess.

You call THAT a mess???? You can't even lose anything in there! I wish I could get ours remotely clean/organized. Be glad your helper was keeping you company. Won't be long till he's stuck in the house studying. Two more weeks and schools out, then my helper can return!

That's not the mess, those pics were after 3hrs of cleaning. When I started you could hardly get the tractor in and out without running stuff over, it was bad.

Looks good to me! You maximize your workshop very well. Nice sturdy work bench too.

I start yesterday to clean my space but someone came up with a job for me who took most of my day and I got just 2 days off per 3 weeks
But in my case It's worse...I have more project stored then space to work on them so I need to take radical measure.

The way I see it...

1-Like Todd suggests you should store all your tools every day even if the job is not finish so you don't search all day long to find them the next day.
2-All the stuff you don't use or have no propose for your working space need to go first period.
3-You need to build or purchase a dedicated rack to store parts so they don't take space on the bench , under the bench or on the shed floor.
4- Wood floor is a real PITA to clean, a rubber mat like those TSC sell is what you need.
5-Buy a magnetic broom! Getting on your knees for searching a fricking spring who fly away or the last small roll pin left in the bag a Sunday is enough to justify this purchase...

Nice shed Tim, but air conditioning tops it.

I didn't even notice that until now... I bet it stays nice and cozy in there with the door shut
