Stumpy aka Mr Tidy I think you have let your standards slip a little here that is almost as untidy as my shed.
You didn't need more bench space you just needed to make more room by tidying up the "stuff" that is not so neatly stacked(thrown) under your bench and into your shelves.
I honestly don't know how you can sleep at night it must haunt you.
What you really need is a bigger shed i.e. "shop" for you Americans!
Morning Ootai.
I can't argue the point many of us Americans enjoy having a large shop to work in and moreover the available materials to do whatever the project may be so you don't have to figure out where to find it here in Thailand. I have ( not necessarily by design) accumulated various supplies because around this place when you see something you might need or use, you pick it up because you may never find it again when you need it. Every trip to the states I bring back tools or supplies as well. My wife used to say I was silly until some thing broke or needed repair and we had to find someone with the parts or material to fix it (Not the Thai way, the right way). Now she likes it and understands
I do however agree, I need a bigger Shed/Shop. I'd like to have a bandsaw and upright mill and of course it would make my mancave bigger where I could use the bench as a poker table
Stumpy
I think you would have recognised I was just having a crack at you as I was amazed your "shop" wasn't neat and tidy like your yard and lawn and hedge and......
Anyway I think it looks much more tidy and organised than my shed. So I thought I should post a few (too many) pictures so you and the others can have a crack at me if you want.
As I wlak from the house
West end
South side
More south side from further west
As I walk in the door north side. Dirk notice the vice on my bench I made from scrap wood I had laying about.
No room on it though as it is used more as a storage space.
More of the same showing eastern end door
North side of the middle pile of crap
South side western end
South wall and eastern end door
South side of the middle
My nightmare. Old drip irrigation pipe that I think is useless but am not allowed to get rid of.
I got workshop envy
I knew you were having a go Ootai. I was laughing.
Do you know how long it has taken me to secretly toss worthless shit here. Thai people will keep everything. I had to ban my FIL from using bailing wire and that green plastic string shit.
^^with carrier bags that slowly degrade in the sun and then one day let go spilling their contents everywhere and a bag that dissolves into a million pieces of plastic that you end up picking up for the next 6 months, that has largely stopped with the demise of the FiL Buddha bless him.
