wheeledhorseman 573 #56 Posted February 17, 2012 I love the rug Martin - now that's what I call real class in a workshop! About his photos Lars wrote Some Pict of my workshop still"clean" Missing and get the rest of the tool in there .. And some more equipment What he didn't reveal was the detail of his plan for this. Well a bit of industrial espionage has uncovered the tools and equipment he's orderedl. Lars yoor workshop is too clean it looks like an operating theatre in a hospital - You were right Neil!

Martin 2,130 #57 Posted February 18, 2012 I love the rug Martin - now that's what I call real class in a workshop! that rug, and the large carpet square were on their way to the garbage, so i gave them some use. makes working on stuff a little nicer than concrete.

specialwheelhorse 174 #58 Posted February 18, 2012 Thats the only way to keep the floor nice. I've got my whole shop floor covered like that. I run the alleys here looking for nice rugs peaple just throw away for no reason at all. Then you buy your wife a new carpet sweeper. Stay in good with her and the old cleaner works well in the shop But I do grit my teeth when I pick up the stray nut or cotter pin or whatever. Sure better than cold concrete on the floor. I paint and weld in the alley behind the shop. JIM In Balmy Texas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bowtiebutler956 649 #60 Posted February 18, 2012 Well since well are all being so honest, I thought I would show you guys the disaster I call "my shop". This should prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that I can be a slob with the best of them! Even my horse is filthy in these pics, and yes, that is real dog poop on the front tire in the 4th pic down. I will be cleaning very very soon really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meadowfield 2,545 #61 Posted February 19, 2012 Love it ! that's a proper workshop... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meadowfield 2,545 #62 Posted February 19, 2012 dont let meadowfield kid you about his tidy bench.You cant see to the right of photo. It'll be like my shed or garage.a sxxt tip.It shows he cant be doing much work on these horses if it is that tidy. And any way where was the ....Tea mugs....Coffee pots...Or most of all the ...Beer Cans..(Or yorkshire Puds) Wait while we bring down some oily wheel horse bits we'll mess it up.. What about to the left? I know I said you could eat dinner off it... well I needed some food for thought whilst assembling the new rectifier PCB. steak and kidney pud! yum.... :text-lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raider10 3 #63 Posted February 19, 2012 :woohoo: You fat nosher. Good job you made the door extra wide so you can fit through. Have you left room for a microwave and deep fat fryer? And wot about a beer cooler. Hmmm now theres an idea! :banana-tux: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve B. 30 #64 Posted March 9, 2012 So I figured that while I was snapping some shots of my cab, I should bare my soul on the messy bench thread. The "shop": 14'x16' shed that I moved into when we moved last. At the old house I had a 24'x36' garage, it was like trying to cram a gallon of schyte into a quart jar! Inside... the carnage! The drawers really help hide stuff, I highly recommend them. Of course my Wheel Horse has "pride of place" although it does tend to occupy most of the building. And lastly, my faithful assistant and the rest of the yard... the boss has placed a moritorium on any further buildings so I'm planning an extension to the back of the shop. The canvas sheds house the dune buggies, motorcycles and major project components. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whfan74 2,015 #65 Posted March 9, 2012 Well after reading through all of this I don't see anything wrong with your work shops. They all look too clean for me. I am ashamed to show our shop right now........we require all visitors to have their shots first. Steel toe boots are a definite bonus. Might build up enough courage to show the mess.

COMMANDO1 23 #66 Posted March 9, 2012 Im curious, how do those canvas sheds hold up.....expec. in the wind. thought about buying 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve B. 30 #67 Posted March 9, 2012 The canvas has done a lot better than I expected. Our yard is well sheltered by trees so they don't see a lot of high winds. I can speak to snow loads though, they will stand a foot of snow on the tops. I always make sure to knock any snowfall off of them though. A friend of mine had one collapse on his and his wife's motorcycles causing about $3000 damage to them. The small one (about 10' square) is about 9yrs old and starting to show signs of wear. This is the large ones (10' x 20') second winter. All in all, they are an inexpensive cover for some of our outdoor toys, although the boss absolutely hates having them in "her" yard.
