Tool Room Makeover

I just started the SUNY New Paltz metal program, tool room makeover! Holy crap we have a lot of stuff. I am trying to make it easier for students to access the tools. I have also decided that it has been hard to determine what tools we have therefore it must be almost impossible to know what you will need. Everyday I discover a new tool and say to myself "If I had known we had this I would have used it".

Using the CNC I have made the ultimate pegboard. I am going to use shaker pegs with 1/2" tenons (the kind with mushroom heads) to hang stuff up. The hole grid will allow me to change it on the fly if I need to. I feel like I am waist high in tools and supplies.

I will post some in process photos now and some finished photos later. Wish me luck.
