    I so wish I had a garage…

    My workshop is in a (former) bedroom in a smallish UK terrace house and it’s so hard to keep the dust contained, and impossible to work with full sheet materials

    Looking fab so far!

      Mate I do sometimes wish I was American, or at least lived out in the country, just for the sake of S P A C E!

      I love my little terraced house, but my little shed can’t hold that much and I want a workshop for my electronics

      Thanks! The garage is nice. It has some real advantages. When it’s all set up, I’ll be able to back the pickup truck to the garage door and take a full sheet of plywood directly from the truck bed to the workbench. When the weather is nice, I like to open the doors and just work in the fresh air. Finally, while I do sweep and vacuum up, there’s always a little bit of dust left over. For that little bit of dust, I can grab the leaf blower and just blow the last bit of really fine dust out the garage door.
