Danny Byrd’s Shop – Shop Tour
This Viewer Shop comes from Danny Byrd who’s starting his own business. Let’s hear about his awesome shop!
My name is Danny Byrd I have a 24 year background in construction and the last 13 years as a commercial construction superintendent. I have been building furniture and cabinets for the last 12 years and teaching myself new techniques to improve my skills with every project. I have been laid off since last Sept. and haven’t had much luck finding another superintendent position, so I’ve been trying to make a start at my own woodworking business. The shop is a 26ft. x 40ft. pole building that I built in 2005. I framed in the walls to insulate and drywall. I also decided to frame and sheet the floor instead of concrete. It has a 200 amp independant service. It’s location is about 100′ from my back door. Tools are as follows, 5hp Delta unisaw, DJ20 jointer, 15″ x5 Delta planer, Powermatic 14″ bandsaw w/ 6″ riser block, Jet 18″ 3hp. band saw, Delta dust collector, Powermatic 79T mortise machine, Performax 22-44 plus drum sander, Delta model 52-625 belt/disc sander, Craftsman 17″ drill press, Delta 46-202p wood lathe, 10″ Makita miter saw, 60 gal. air comp. Shop Fox w1686 spindle sander and my router table. More hand tools and clamps, than I care to list.
