cjmt Report post Posted October 23, 2015 Hi Guys, I posted this in the watch strap forum but I thought it might be worth cross posting to a higher traffic area of the forum as well as it may be (or may not be!) of interest to people more generally. or for YouTube types https://youtu.be/FFDo-zzr9dY Charlie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YinTx Report post Posted October 30, 2015 cjmt, Is this your shop? If so, I really like it. Must be pleasant and relaxing to work in. I don't think I'd have a regular day job if I had a shop like this to work out of, lol. YinTx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cjmt Report post Posted October 30, 2015 It is my workshop. We've tried hard to make it a nice place be, the environment effects in the work. It's not always relaxing though and it is the day job! Charlie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On the whole a calm workshop produces work faster and better because less mistakes are made so we try to do that as well. Neither always works, but we try!
