Best carpet for woodshop

I think that this is the first "which carpet" thread I've seen. A tan colored shag that matches the color of shavings sounds interesting. Of course, I hope that folks take note of the date .... April 1 ... as in, April ****'s Day.


BTW, I second what Grant suggested. And, frizz up your hair and grow long sideburns.

Well shucks, on second thought, I'll keep the wood floor and frequently cover it in wood shavings... :)

But I might just adopt the bell bottoms, burns, and discoball. Just picture Bob Ross turning, that'll be me. "Now we put a happy little bead here."

Thanks for the fashion advice, and for setting me straight!
 
Bell bottoms will keep the shavings out of your shoes. Of course if you have your shirt unbuttoned down to your waste the shavings will end up in your shorts.
