woodduck Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) Amazing Kevin suggested that I should share some pictures of the conditions I work under in my open carport workshop,not as flash as some of your beautiful workshops but it works for me,at the moment i have moved the scrollsaw onto my back porch as is shown in one of the pictures, it is much warmer there as it catches the winter sun. Happy scrolling Peter Edited August 31, 2014 by woodduck Travis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amazingkevin Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 I'm in awe at the sight of your bare bone shop. It must be the open air atmosphere unrestricting, relaxed settings that such Taj Mahal quality work can be produced from.In this case it's not the tool that makes the job but knowledge! They say a man's only as good as his tools.From what i remember ,you use a dremil mostly?An airbrush and food colorings, or acrylics.I'm shaking my head this very minute looking at all i have ,which is over kill and i'm producing mud pies with state of the art equipment.I guess less is more in your case ,Use what you got,Wow.Boy had you been my teacher i'd have been somebody by now .Thinking about your shop again typing this I'm still shaking my head, You are truly gifted from the one up above .

Phantom Scroller Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Your so lucky to be able to work outside like that if I did it I would be battling the rain wind and cold. Great shop Pete Roly. Rob Roy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Roy Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Hi Peter, like Roly I envy you. Here on the West coast of Scotland I would find it nigh on impossible to work, as I would be wearing at least 4 coats, a balaclava,and gloves. I would also have to work with MARINE ply since it's so wet at times. . It's not the tools it's the way you use them and you certainly know how to use them, Peter, to great effect. Thank you for sharing your car port with us. Have a good day. Rob Roy. amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Nothing wrong with a shop like that, and you sure have better air conditioning than I do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryEA Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Thanks for showing your shop. I think as long as you have one... I finally got my shop organized enough that I don't have to turn sideways to walk around in it. amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellis Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 If it works that is all you need. Your shop looks a lot better than my garage. Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
