Members koreric75 Posted February 22, 2018 Members Report Posted February 22, 2018 Well here is my mess, I carved out some garage space with a wall mounted fold down bench, added some rail mount wall cabinets for storage. I also have my inside work area which is a huge desk and my recent singer 15-91. https://imgur.com/a/Akna9 Quote Machines currently in use: Cowboy 3200, Adler 67-372, Singer 66, Singer 15-91

But too much salt water in the air. Everything would rust in a month. I like your fold down table with the storage inside. Is it pretty solid feeling? Quote

Members Buzzard2005 Posted February 25, 2018 Members Report Posted February 25, 2018 This is my "shop", yes I use a wooden chair with a block of granite and poundo board underneath to keep the sound down. I do a lot in this small corner of the basement, internet radio, edit photos, and I started getting into steampunk, there is a lot of leather in steampunk. Quote

Once I get my pony resized to the height that works best for me, I will probably do something similar to attach it to my work bench. The problem is lack of light when I move away from my work bench.

alpha2 Posted February 26, 2018 Report Posted February 26, 2018 You have more leather than I do. How old is that building? It looks it's been there for a while. Jeff Quote So much leather...so little time.
alpha2 Posted February 26, 2018 Report Posted February 26, 2018 Thanks! I love old buildings. But then, I was born in '53, so super old is relative. Quote So much leather...so little time.

Hey, another '53er! And I live in a house that was built sometime in the late 1800's so no, 1950s does NOT qualify as 'super old'! Quote

The town I came from has more than 1000 years of history. @nstarleather I would love to have a wander around your warehouse... Do you charge for guided tours? There’s a closed shoe factory near me that’s bigger than your warehouse with approx 50 to 100 pallets of shoe leather just sitting there going mouldy. I bought about 30 hides but I only do leather as a hobby at the moment and cant store anymore. Quote
