Nice thread Pipeclay. If your workshop can tend to be a mess, like mine with tools lying everywhere, then here is a tip to help keep it tidy. Whenever you walk out of your workshop, put 5 tools away. Before you know it, your benches will stay tool free. This tip comes from the most-excellent book Machine Shop Trade Secrets by James Harvey. Also, have a number of smaller garbage bins strategically located around your workshop and throw rubbish into them ASAP rather than leaving it lying around.
