In the next couple of months I will be selling my house and moving to a new home 150 miles away. Along with the usual misery of moving all my furniture, etc., I will also be moving the contents of my home shop - 3 lathes, a benchtop mill, workbenches, tooling, grinders, table saw, bandsaw, power tools, garage tools, lumber, raw metal stock, etc.
Some of the stuff is in my basement, so moving that stuff will be fun. At the new house, I'll be moving metal shop stuff into the basement (has a ground level walk in, so that will help), and wood shop stuff into the garage.
No doubt there are others out there who have gone through this before, so I'm asking: What lessons did you learn from relocating your shop? What worked well? What didn't work? Any and all advice welcomed.
