May as well throw in a dartboard, this project could take some time.

I would, but my board and steel darts are in my office at work. [emoji12]

Dollies. Lots of dollies. Every implement or heavy item goes on one. Makes hook up easier. Saves your back. The HF and NT ones are inexpensive. Put two or more together by screwing plywood or boards to them for larger items.

I use pallets under stuff, and a forlift or pallet jack depending on requirement. Benches are set up to be moved with pallet jack.

For the best under $50 spent for my shop would have to be a Miners Light- Forehead light-
Ebay with free shipping from China
I am using the forehead light instead of turning on the overhead lights and I do have some amazing bright lights in the shop- I save a lot of money by using the Forehead light
everywhere I turn my head I can see- but don't look at someone in the eyes
It uses two rechargeable 18650 Li Poly batteries- Buy brand name batteries LG- Panasonic-Sony
cheers
Hank

hello,

A chain hoist,
Helps to preserve your back when lifting heavy items,
Dismantling,
Whatever,
Even pulling defect machines into the workshop on your own.
