Let's see your Neander Shop!

[Brian Holcombe]

Brian,

Looks great, sometimes wish mine was as nice. Of course I do not have clients visits to concentrate my clean up and origination efforts....Who am I kidding, mine would look about the same if the Queen was on her way over.

Anyway here are some recent photos of the three main benches:

Bah, your shop is quite awesome Ken! Thank you!

Brian,

If you don't mind sharing, what is the foot print of your shop?

I'm not sure, maybe 250 sq ft

OK, I'll bite.

Howdy Andrew and a belated welcome to the Creek.

For some reason your attachments aren't working. Sometimes a reply with quote works.

I'll try again. I'm still trying to figure out how this posting stuff works. Let me know if these are visible.

Thanks Phil! Appreciate the kind words. Some of my post is tongue in cheek; I’m proud of it and it works for me. It’s certainly a work in progress but it works!

Hello all,

Great thread! Here are a couple of my shop, a recent one with the Scrap Dragon sleeping and the other with it in action

The shop fills the better part of a two car garage.

Best,
Chris

This is my little hideout. I live in an apartment and was lucky to find out there came two storage rooms with it.
I'm dreaming of a bigger shop, but it'll have to wait. I have access to a machine shop at school, thats where i do most work but it's nice to be able
to do a thing or two at home.

The little booth limits the size of work i'm able to do, imagine running a NO.8 jointer in there It's a good place to do restorations of old tools though! I run the electrolysis on
the balcony and do everything else down in the booth.

I took the picture just after i had made a couple of doorsteps, it gets messy just by thinking of working in there.

Oscar, that looks like a really nice setup. Seems to have everything you would need.

Work in progress. Need to get a cabinet made to store everything to help keep the work bench cleaner.

[Zach Dillinger]

Here's the shop as it is today. Still some painting to do and some boxes of hand tools to sell / give away, but other than that I'm happy with the first floor. So much better for photography than it used to be.

Brian, please do not take me wrong as per your history in these forums (fora?) I am the first person to acknowledge you know what you are doing, but I cannot see the rational behind to have carpet in the woodworking workshop. I never had saw that anywhere in the world... even for a sewing shop I has seem people preferring hardwood floor instead of carpet.

What are your reasons to go to carpet?

Thanks in advance for your answer!

[Allen Jordan]

I imagine short carpet would be much nicer to stand on, and with a neander shop the cleanup would just be a quick vac job.
