I was finally able to get my hangers up on the ceiling to hang my roof rack up.  I can also use this space later to store full length boards, if I collect any. I had a hard time getting this screwed into the roof.  I was using 3.5" long deck screws butt they were only grabbing a thread or two after going through the 2x3 and what appears to be two sheets of sheetrock.  So I ended up going with 4" lag bolts instead. These hold really well and I think I will go ahead and shoot a lag bolt into the later hanger as well, just for added piece of mind.

I picked up a 25' air hose reel from harbor freight for $60.  Normally these are 50' but I really don't have the space to waste on the extra lenght, and I don't expect to need anything more than this. I can always bring the air compressor to the work if I need more range.

By placing these just right they only take up about 20" width.  I should be able to just squeeze these both side by side into the miter saw cart.  That leaves a bit of space at the back to store any extra hoses and room to put in 2 drawers to hold all my air tools.   I still need to wire this up and make sure the hose is in good shape, but otherwise it seems to work quite nicely.

I'm getting closer to finalizing my designs.  I have almost everything fleshed in properly.  I still need to decide what to do with the work bench.  I roughed in something as a place holder but there is a lot of room here for improvement.  I have not modeled the faces for any of the drawers here.

Right now I have 17 drawers and 2 rolling shelfs for my CNC and air compressor. I will probably put some quick shelves into the work bench as a place holder for future growth.  Those could be pulled out later and converted to more drawers as my needs grow.

I have been going back and forth between euro style drawer slides (cheap) or ball bearing side rails (full extension, more solid).  The only real attraction to the euro style rails is the price, they run around $5 apiece. The ball bearing rails run around $10 apiece, but I think I have a handle on some lower cost ones that may be good enough.  With nearly 20 drawers I'm investing a significant amount of money into drawer slides.  I estimate this all will take 8-10 sheets of MDF as well, that makes it a fairly expensive undertaking at todays price of $60 a sheet.

Finally I have been collecting up some tools to help me work out how square everything is. It is time to step up my game a bit before tackling such a large project.
