Jim,
We have two separate structures but there is information in the Setting
Up Shop book on that. Basically, set your clean shop  up like a finish
room with its own exhaust fan/air cleaner and separate the two rooms
with an air tight wall.
And yes, either learn to wipe your feet or take your shoes off    :>)
Regards,
Dale

Dale,

Thanks. Good site and ideas. I like the two room idea, but how do you
keep dirt/dust from being tracked or blown from the dirty side to the
clean side? Is there a =93buffer=94 entrance, completely separate =
entrances,
or do you wipe your feet off better than I do? I used to have my shop
inside my house and every time I=92d leave it you could see exactly =
where
I=92d gone.

Jim,
Check out Woodshop Dust Control and  Setting Up Shopl- Sandor
Nagyszalanczy, and The Workshop Book-Scott Landis(all on Taunton Press)=20
There is some shareware available at
http://www.inthewoodshop.org/software/software.shtml that I have found
useful, especially ShopDesigner.
Shop design is a pretty individual thing and usually ordered by the type
of work you do the most, the size of your shop and budget (not
necessarily in that order). We are in process on two shop areas- one
"clean" and one "dirty". The clean area is climate controlled, no noisy
or dust producing power tools allowed, an air cleaner running 24/7. The
dirty shop contains a list of the usual suspects- routers, sanders,
power saws, drill presses etc. The dust collector lives there, the
compressor lives between the shops in its own little cubbyhole to serve
both shops.  Don't forget safety equipment, especially for the eyes,
lungs and ears.=20
You might check the pianotech archives for some posts on the subject
some time back.
Best,
Dale

List,
=20
I=92m currently planning my rebuilding =93dream shop=94 at my home. Can =
anyone
refer me to articles or books that might give me ideas to look at? It
will be aprox. 1000 sq. ft. and hopefully be done this fall/winter.
Currently I have a small, efficient shop (200 ft.) where I do action
work and key work, etc. and the new shop will be in addition to this.=20
=20
Does anyone have the =94ideal=94 shop (if it exists) or know of one =
worth
investigating?=20
=20
I have definite ideas, but your input will be greatly appreciated,
especially pertaining to layout, i.e.; floor plan.=20

Jim Busby
