LET'S REORGANISE the WORKSHOP!!

I had a long list of things I want to change about my workshop - and in this video I'm ticking off as many of them as possible! I'm going to be exploring storage solutions, de-cluttering, clamp storage, drawers, hammer and mallet racks, tool storage, battery charging station, table saw in feed and outfeed, and more!

I found some nice teak veneered drawers with brass handles up in the attic and in this video I'll use them to make a piece of furniture - a nice mid century modern style chest of drawers - for someone special.

A CLEAR WINNER! / Mirka DEROS Vs 3M Xtract

UPDATE - PLEASE READ: Following some comments suggesting that the vibration on the 3M could be due to the pad saver, I have responded to this via an Instagram story here : https://www.instagram.com/stories/ragnbonebrown/3151964799280130289/
