the Shop Tours were just great! din't see one I din't like!! :D and to be honest... I din't see one i like better than another. I just liked them all. all do the same thing, but all quite different. all qualify as 'shops'... I even liked the ones with no pix, and the ones small in stature but big in capacity! lol... I have, lemme see how many? :rolleyes: (wondering) that one thar, this one here, one at the hangar... two at farm... umm... I have 5 shops! do wood splitting shops count, i mite have 6... guess at least one pix would be warranted. how about 'shops to be"... I mite have 7! thinking centralizing some stuff... make me a blacksmith shop, too... ;)

Thank you for sharing your special spaces... :number_one:

I am wanting to get a 8 x 20 shipping container for storage. I can get one for $1500.
I want to get one and make it into a camper. Chain it down to the goose neck equipment trailer. I figure my Samurai would fit in it. Pull the Samurai out and flip down some bunk beds, good to go...

My shop is a converted barn that is 48x60. Most of it is still cold area but have a heated room up front that is probably 12 X 40 and also has a heated bay in it just big enough to park a crewcab pickup in it. Sorry for the mess Im in the middle of a reorganizing project in the front room. Its a disaster right now. Other picture is the only picture I have that shows the rest of the shop. 117.JPG 107.JPG

Some of you have seen my small red neck saw shop before but here's some pics. New and old...

Outside. Door is just big enough to get my L2900 tractor inside. 9'x10ish I think. Total outside is 24'x36'. It's about right for me but I need some cold storage for truck, wood, mower to be out of elements but not in my way of heated space.

I was inspired by all the cool shops already shared, I will give you all a glimpse of my chaos :)
The far left portion was the original barbershop for my town pre-1920, moved to my property in the mid 40's and converted to a two room apartment for college kids at a local university.
The area with the green door is an enclosed breezeway between the 1950's era 2 car garage on the right and a chicken coop behind the apartment/barber shop. At some point that nobody remembers the little garage on the far right was added.
Eventually the area behind the green door was all enclosed into a large shop area with a read garage door behind the barber shop.

right inside the green door - looking to the back past all the bits of remaining insulation hanging from staples in the ceiling, left over from tearing out all the passages where animals had decided to make their homes inside the roof :(
parts storage on the left and dang near everywhere else

Green door to the left in pick, this side is white, this is the old barber shop and my saw hobby area, concrete floor was poured after we pulled down the 5 roofs that had been built on top of each other over the years from the inside to leave the rubber roof on top.

my pellet stove on the front wall of the barbershop, where it makes so little heat that I now use it as a shelf instead, nice waste of money, though it might be better once the whole shop gets re-insulated or torn down and replaced

saw projects started but not finished, mocking me from their little shelves

rolling rack of builders, crankcases and parts for saws I enjoy building

IMG_1455.JPG

top of my bench covered in parts and saws, boxes above are each a complete saw to build, plus a bunch of powdercoated crankcases and boxes of parts separated by model, the giant whiteboard of doom and miss December

parts bins on the left, halfway to the back of shop area

back past the parts bins, more boxes of parts and my shop assistant Marv having sexy time with a backpack blower on top of a table saw, he is such a cad.
