Garage Workshop Plans
Your garage workshop plans have to be tailor made by you after considering what machines you have, the kind of projects you want to make and the space you have.
Here is just one example I wanted to show you to point out a few things to think about.
Also, as you lay out your machinery and work space you should also lay out the machines you plan to have in the near future.

Since this wood working shop layout is in a garage the machines were lined up around the wall and then moved to the center when in use. (Equipment dollies are available for most machines and they are well worth the investment.)
The machines that create the most dust were placed as close to the center of the garage as possible along with the second most important machine...the dust collector.
The close proximity to the dust collector makes the dust collector more efficient and it also eliminates the necessity of stretching the dust collector hose all over the shop.
Placing a workbench behind the center of the work area allows it to be pivoted and used as a outfeed table.
Keep your workshop clean, organized and well lit. It's safer and more enjoyable to work in a clean shop.
Make sure your electric wiring will handle the load requirements for each machine. Try to use different circuits for machines that will be running at the same time.
