Space Constrained Toolbox Setups

Setup Showcase

I ended up putting my SineCore lathe on a HF 42" Tool Box which fits about perfectly. I added a sheet of plywood to the top of the toolbox. This toolbox isn’t extremely heavy and I did end up having to mount the toolbox to the wall to prevent the lathe from rocking (especially during 100% rapid movements). If you have the space I’d highly recommend the Milwaukee 52" Tool Box instead.

I ended up mounting my computer on the wall next to the lathe to be able to move the station around in the area.

The computer is mounted behind the monitor arm for a compact setup. I ended up mounting a fan to the computer as well for a little additional cooling.

Congrats on being the first post!:partying_face:

Nice setup!

I’ve played around with monitor placement quite a bit myself. The left side is probably the logical spot since you don’t have to turn your head as much, but I keep mine on the right side too. It just feels more natural.

The use of functional prints are great!:ok_hand: I wish power bricks were built into the monitors and computers!

What mini computer are you using?
