This is my shop. I build and repair equestrian equipment.

Amazing Shop! I can't get past the complete surround of knotted pine! I think that's what it is. My house is a hundred years old and has floors that look like that. Cool stitching pony.

Mjolnir started this thread from a discussion on another thread, and what a great thread!

Its fantastic to see all the different workshops and spaces everyone has. And I have picked up some great ideas to add to my own workshop... Thank you 

The work space I’m most impressed with so far was on the original thread before this one... and it’s by Joseph1836  I hope he doesn’t mind me posting his work shop here for him. It’s amazing what you can achieve with so little a work shop!

please keep posting your work spaces!

Have we seen your workshop? 

I have a bench lol! with a five drawer roll under storage. Bought at Sam's club, highly recommend. I'll start a bench thread.

(This is when KCL called me out on another thread. Thank you for that. Inspiration comes in unlikely moments. Some times it's best to act before you even realize that it happened.)

This was the shop yesterday morning.  A non profit asked if they could hold a photoshoot for low income families of Oakland, CA.

 

 

And this is how it looks this morning...for the moment.  I live and work in an old warehouse.  The living room, over by the windows also holds the hand woodworking tools.  I'm standing in outer parts of the kitchen that is where the car gets parked.  The woodworking machines live to the left, the big photo equipment is stored there as well until needed.  The space is never ever ever the same, it can be completely different in a matter of minutes.

The rolling cart in the foreground holds leather tools as well as cameras, lenses etc.

The line of wine bottles are from recent wine shoots...one of the perks is I have a never ending supply of free top of the line wine.

I would have to see proof of that before I'd believe it's worse than mine right now. . .I'm still in the process of moving and I'm about to pull my hair out from frustration.

This has to be one of the nicest tools bags never heard of them, I looked them up they make some really nice stuff a little pricey but they look very well made.

Ok... you all have inspired me to clean up my workshop today! It’s cramped but it’s the best it’s going to get.

it used to be my office but now a desk in the corner is good enough. My sons also use it to exercise “sometimes”.

The books I bought from other retired leather workers. The leather on the table I bought from a shoe factory that closed about 10 years ago, there’s at least 30 skins there.

I have the same exact weight machine in my work area plus a weight bench and other equipment, duel purpose room. Wow you fit a lot of machines in that room very well organized.
