show us ya workshop...
« on: 18 March 2012, 11:40 »
...the reason i ask is that i havn't had a workshop for nearly 3 years now. I have a tiny shed rammed full of cr@p andsomethings gotta give, i need somewhere to tinker and be a hermit. Anybody built their own and if so how, what material, planning permission etc. I've no choice but to use my back garden to which i will not be able to get a vehicle round. But i can live with that! Any homebrew manlabs out there?

It's like camping and car mechanics combined. Not ideal.


Had a loan of this place, but again not my space and leaked like a very leaky thing.



Hopefully getting a new space so things can progress....

I looked at DH's thread too, very cool. Unfortunately neither of my parents own a farm :undecided:

But I'm working on it. Hopefully have something to update it with soon :wink:

It's the one occasion I feel quite privileged.

When I was in Bristol I did have a tandem garage as well.  It was rather more cramped, but wonderful because I literally walked through two doors, into my own man-lab, where things like this took place:
