I Want To See Your Sanctuary! (Show Off Your Shop)

Recommended Posts

I have recently upgraded my shop space and moved it to a friends house. The current set up there is far better than what I had, and it got me thinking about what other things I can add to my work space to make life easier.

So without further delay Here is my entire work-space.

I have broken it down and taken pictures of my separate areas

Here is my favorite part of my shop, my marble table.

This is my cutting table, I am working putting together a few large cutting boards, but this plywood top will do for now.

Then we have the fabrication table. Art supllies, rulers, squares, levels, my friend's girlfriend's laptop (she takes over my space from time to time to do homework.)

Thanks for the link, I did a search for "work shop" and didnt see anything within the first few pages. I guess I need to step my search game up.

My shop is the spare bedroom in my house.

I love how organized you are! I am also envious of your huge table. Did you fabricate your stamp holders? or were they bought somewhere?

I made the stamp holders myself. There are 40 tools in each one, plus I have one that holds 12 that I use on the bench. The large table will hold a whole side of leather, but I actually cut out saddle pieces on the floor because the skirting leather is so heavy. I do all my design, layout, pattern making, cutting of smaller pieces, most everything right on that table. I use the stitching horse for hand stitching most things, but sometimes I just hold the work in my lap to sew, like I'm doing right now. I'm making a pair of sherling wool lined moccasins and I'm stitching the uppers to the soles right now.

I am VERY particular about keeping the shop neat and clean. I can't stand clutter. Have fun with your work.
