my emp kit is scheduled for oct and just getting the garage set up and would like to see what some of you have done for work benches such as tool positioning grinder, vice, band saw, drill press etc.
With each kit, I've needed to reconfigure the shop. Give yourself a LOT of flexibility for changes.

I built two EAA tables with nothing bolted to them, and have been happy to have the flat surfaces for the bigger skins and flight controls.
I've got a small table with a 24" square top built to bar top height with a tabletop drill press and belt sander bolted to it. It's on casters so i can spin it in any direction as needed.
Also have a grinder with 3m wheels on it that isn't bolted to anything. It creates so much aluminum dust that when I want to use it, I just carry it out to the back patio and set it on a board screwed on top of al old BBQ grill cabinet. I just carry it back in when I'm done or if it looks like it's going to rain. Not having that thing n the shop saves a bunch of mess and cleanup.
