[Closed] On this crap Saturday - show off your workshop

I'm having a great Saturday cheers

Colin Furze Workshop Tour

I don't think mine would be much of an inspiration seeing as it rather looks like a hoarders nest most of the time!

On this crap Saturday, why not tidy your workshop? 😀

Under construction. Also in Sheffield

Don't have much of a plan beyond some kind of L-shaped work bench. I'm just winging it.

@adamt - see my other thread 🙁 broken/dislocated ankle. I'd rather be sorting than this buddy 🙂

There's no such thing as a crap Saturday as I don't have to go to bloody work.

Ahh soz about the ankle. I thought you were referring to the weather (which is crap where I am).

This is my workshop which is shared with 5 bikes, 5 windsurfers and all the stuff that goes with them, 2 surfboards, camping gear, gardening equipment...

Ooh! Do all those work surfaces line through? Impressive if they do.

Mine's on this thread:
https://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/shed-build-–-things-i’m-learning

Although it now houses a workbench, CNC router (that sits on the workbench most of the time), 3D printer and tool wall.

It's hard at work building a campervan, so always a mess at the moment.

Yes, the benches are all the same height. And when it's not raining I can set them up outside.
I usually deal with 2.8m boards so I've got an infeed and outfeed for cutting square on the MFT and pocket-holing the long edge of a wardrobe back.

This was me putting pocket holes and Dominos into a wardrobe this afternoon.

This is the most recent.

Popcorn machine and candyfloss maker have moved out since mind.

I'm unsure what to use for a worktop or where to get it. Any recommendations for the space pictured above are welcome.

Sharkattack> Internal fire doors?

I have to store and work on my bikes in this 2.4 m x 2.8 m space so kept the shelves high and wall mounted to preserve floor space.

I have more storage, but not a great deal, in the loft so I made a big loft hatch.

@Scienceofficer I also have an offcut of Kinspan about that size, it's great for laying on when working under the car in winter. Keeps your back nice and warm!

Lol! Mine is just an off cut from the ceiling insulation. Recused elsewhere now.

Timely thread - I'm due to move into my new house in a few weeks. Quite excited to upgrade from shed to garage for the first time!

@sharkattack - what kind of lighting have you gone for there?
(pretty sure the garage will only have a single pendant bulb, which to be honest won't quite cut it...)

Worktops: it depends what you're doing on them. Mine are MDF, with 20mm holes at 96mm centres so I can use dogs and clamps to get everything square. Plywood also good. But I'm a carpenter. If you are messing about with oily metal go to B&Q's offcut bin and grab a bit of kitchen worktop.
