alpha2 Posted December 15, 2017 Report Posted December 15, 2017 I was thinking I was at the point that I needed to start moving into the basement as well, until I saw these shops! Turns out I have room for A LOT more stuff in my shop! I need to find room for a Cowboy machine, likely will move the file cabinets to the basement. Ideally, the closet would be emptied and the Cowboy would go in there..."she who must be obeyed" says it ain't gonna happen. Quote So much leather...so little time.
Mjolnir Posted December 15, 2017 Author Report Posted December 15, 2017 I just want to say, " I appreciate you all for sharing!" I love the organized chaos. The discombobulated beauty of all the shops shared so far. I have new ideas already. Anyone remember the intro scene to 'Ray Bradbury Theater', ( U.S. tv show in the 80's)? https://youtu.be/2nIqGI5-6HI I have a wish list from every photo so far. Keep sharing! You guys and gals (scratch that... 'makers'!) are awesome! Just a thought but all of these shops from around the globe have an essential sameness. Breathe deeply and smell it. It's the scent of leather. it's home, it's a memory so deep your grandkids will be transported back to their childhood every time they smell it. Long after we are all gone, we will be vivid in memory, our souls attached to creativity.

Members Willie0 Posted December 15, 2017 Members Report Posted December 15, 2017 I have a small sloped ceiling room, this is my table. The machines and cutting table are on the other walls. Quote
Mjolnir Posted December 15, 2017 Author Report Posted December 15, 2017 Just fell in love with your maul! Did you do the handle wrap? Quote He attacked everything in life with a mix of extraordinary genius and naive incompetence, and it was often difficult to tell which was which. Douglas Adams
Members Willie0 Posted December 15, 2017 Members Report Posted December 15, 2017 Yes, I did the handle wrap. Whenever I have "artists block" on what project to do next, I look around and see what tool need covering. My family laughs about it a little. Even my sewing machine light has a cover. I did a little instructables.com write-up on how to do the handle, but I imagine most here wouldn't need that. Quote
alpha2 Posted December 15, 2017 Report Posted December 15, 2017 I went right to the maul handle, too! Nice. Quote So much leather...so little time.

I want to steal (borrow) that idea so If you will share details or a close up pic...?
