alpha2 Posted December 21, 2017 Report Posted December 21, 2017 True dat! Anything is better than basement spaces. I've had ENOUGH of that in my life. I've moved all my leatherwork stuff upstairs, with a BIG window, to get out of the basement. Life is good. Quote So much leather...so little time.

I could use bigger shop at this stage in my life. AND I have natural light envy as well seeing MakerUnknowns space.... my dream shop will have south facing windows and if possible sky lights to get as much natural light in as possible.... and anything is better than my basement spaces. I don't have a basement. But I wanted to supply y'all with a bright side. No one upstairs wants to intrude on your basement space. When my oldest son moved out (long story) my wife decided she was ready for a sewing room. She already has an art studio. I had to move quickly to get my leather studio up and running before she took over the space. It was very motivational. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.

It was very motivational. "motivational" is a very diplomatic word for it! I can identify. However, while when I am in the basement they don't come down they do all seem to decide they need to ask me something... loudly... from upstairs. For a while Wednesday was "my night' when there were no commitments so I would go down there and work and do my laundry and shoot pellets gun while things dried... everyone new Wednesday was "Leather, laundry and lead night" for dad.... seem no there is no time any of these things...even laundry... but this too shall pass.

More pics please! going back to the beginning of the thread I thought some pics deserve a little shout out. Look at all of these stamps! And I'm pretty sure my 2nd grade principal bent me over that very desk for a paddlin'! ( Mrs. Montgomery, I still swear I didn't do it.) Is that a slab of granite on its top?
