Pegboard tool hangers: A workshop standard
Perforated hardboard (pegboard) is the wallpaper of the workshop.
In addition to general pegboard hooks, you can purchase whole systems of hanging devices in many sizes and configurations to effectively support and organize specific tools. Use tempered hardboard if available.

Don't ignore the floor
If you stop and think about it, you have more direct contact with the floor of your shop than any other part. So it only makes sense to make sure your shop floor is safe, clean and comfortable. Start with the floor finish. If your shop has an unfinished concrete floor, there are several finishes you can apply to make it more attractive and easer to clean (photo, above left). Concrete sealer is a clear product that helps the concrete resist staling and creates a "slick" surface that's easier to sweep but isn't slippery; concrete stain is essentially sealer with a coioring agent for visual appeal; concrete paint seals and beautifies the floor, but because the product has more body it will fill small voids and cracks, eliminating areas where dirt, mildew and even Insects can collect; epoxy paint is a two-part finish that prevents moisture seepage up through the floor, resists stains and spills, and has a very attractive appearance. Regardless of the floor type or surface treat-ment, sweep and clean it regularly, and provide a cushion for your feet at work areas in the form of a rubber floor mat or even old carpet scraps (photo, lower left).

THE GARAGE SHOP: The garage, especially one attached to the house, offers the convenience of a basement shop with fewer drawbacks. Overhead doors provide excellent access, greater headroom, lower humidity and better ventilation. The main genera drawback Is that garages are usually home to one or more vehicles and a host of other outdoor items. A good soiution is to mount your stationary tools on casters so they can be wheeled out of the way to make room for other things.

THE BASEMENT SHOP: The basement offers many advantages as a shop location. It's accessible yet set off from the rest of the house, and the essential house systems are right there.
Drawbacks tend to be limited headroom, negligible natural light, concrete floors and overall dampness/poor ventilation.
