Dags3777 Posted December 18, 2008 Report Posted December 18, 2008 I have stolen an idea of a couple of photo's ans sunk my marble block into the bench. Works well. Cheer's Darryl Quote When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised God doesn't work that way, so I stole one and prayed for forgiveness.
Matara Posted January 4, 2009 Report Posted January 4, 2009 Here's my shop in Brooklyn NY. I spend a lot of time here. It's a mile from my apartment which seems to work well for me. It's close enough that I can walk or skateboard to work and far enough that I'm not consumed with work alone. I can see the Empire state and chrylsler bldgs and a good bit of the manhattan skyline from my windows. Sorta like having a mountainview... but not! Cheers! Freddie Quote http://mataradesign.com
Members Go2Tex Posted January 4, 2009 Members Report Posted January 4, 2009 Nice! I love the flooring. Lots of space, very well arranged. Lots of wall space. Good lighting. Did you build your own benches? What did you use for the tops? They look very sturdy. I can see why you'd spend a lot of time there. Wow. Brooklyn! You must really pay a lot for the rent there. Location with a view! Can't beat that. I bet that was not easy to find at any price. I work out of my home and I know what you mean. I'm always out there in the shop and the phone can ring at any time of day or night. But, it has it's benefits too. I have a short walk to the frig and the bar.... anytime I feel like it. heheh Thanks for sharing. Quote Brent Tubre email: BCL@ziplinkmail.com

Contributing Member rdb Posted January 5, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted January 5, 2009 My Daughter was visiting for Turkey Day, and since her hobby is photography, she took some in my shop. I'm including the one she sent me. I use it for wallpaper on the PC now. Actual pictures of my environment, including what is really going, instead of what my skilled daughter manage to create, are on the second page of this thread. I have actually cleaned up since those, but then I got messy again...lol Quote Web page Facebook
Members Butch Posted January 6, 2009 Members Report Posted January 6, 2009 I'd be ashamed to show a picture of where I'm working now after looking at these great work shops. I'm working out of an approximately 5' X 8' area. It's functional, sort of, and hopefully just temporary.

Members dirtbag77 Posted February 17, 2009 Members Report Posted February 17, 2009 I saw this link a while back when I was looking for storage ideas. My garage has a wall that is adjacent to my bedroom and since my prime tooling hours on my days off are my wife's prime sleeping hours (I'm a bartender) I could never get anything done. Also, my garage if full of greasy automotive stuff and sawdusty woodworking stuff, so it's a bit messy for nice leather. Solution: build a shed. So now I have an 8x8 workspace/hideout in my backyard and get lots more done. It's still not finished, i.e trim, braces and locks, solid footing, but hey, what workspaces are. needs trim and paint I inherited about half of my tools from my grandfather. A lot of the stamps are made from nails or otherwise impossible to find replacements for, so I have to keep them mobile so when I stop for the night, I can pack them in the toolbox and take them into the house with me. just threw this one in cause it's a neat copy of an unpublished photo of Nudie and the King(he's not looking at him in the published one). My friend is Nudie's nephew and he gave it to me, and being that Nudie was a leather tooler himself, I thought it appropriate. Quote
