Will Johnny it looks great,

you and the Bride did bang up job putting this together,

I know you will get a ton of enjoyment out of it, I also know you went to get some leather today, so you should be ready to get it going by tomorrow, unless you take the Forth off, and you do a little fishing and then a little BBQ, sounds good don't it, I'll be right over, LOL

Best Regards Pal

I used this desk for 20 years, now it just holds tools and my laptop. I do most of my tooling on one of the
class tables now.

No, no, no! That's not a leather shop, that's an operating room! It's too clean.....

Hey pards, you're prettying up your work area for the camera. Now let's have some pix of what that bench really looks like.

Nice, Johnny.

WaddWatsonEllis · « **Reply #49 on:** July 04, 2009, 05:59:34 PM »

My immediate, tongue in cheek answer is that it looks very much like my woodworking bench, which looks very much like my electrical repair bench, which looks very much like my plumbing repair bench ... cause its all four ... LOL

Seems to me like you got a fine looking shop there. Lots of good tools, and you obviously know how to use them.

We got a fella that shoots with us who buys all sorts of tools, but they sit in his garage, in the boxes they came in. He's got lots of money, but no knowledge of tools. I've asked him if he would adopt me, but he's only two years older than me, and doesn't think it would work out, seeing as we are both grandpas.

Darn it! JD

Aw heck JD being a grandpa is mostly just a state of mind. I am grandpa to about two thirds of the kids in the neighborhood. At least when they need something fixed

.
Great looking shops guys. Johnnie I am thinking that the pic was took 'before' your first project and it will never be that clean again, right

Dalton Masterson · « **Reply #52 on:** July 05, 2009, 10:37:03 PM »

Well guys, its been awhile since I started this post, and my bench has changed since then. Here is the newest incarnation, which has been this way about a year.
Its the same drafting table, but the shelving on the back was added when someone decided to throw it away. Made a LOT more room for stuff, including some of my watches, and the top even has some hats and other things on top of it.
Everything else is pretty much the same, just rearranged.
I also straightened the top of it up today, but the clutter is from this afternoons projects.

That's true enough GB. The pictures were taken right after finishing it. I've started a few projects and it will never look the same.

Ned Buckshot · « **Reply #54 on:** July 06, 2009, 09:09:20 AM »

Here's a picture of my main work area. It's used for everything from leather to knife making to custom cabinetry.

I'm blessed to have a 12X15 room that doubles as a laundry room and shop. The cabinets and draws were here when we moved in. It's an old place, with this shop attached to a single car garage. The garage has cabinets and benches too, so I have room for a drill press and grinder in there.

To the right of the washer/dryer is a deep sink, which is very handy. I have enough room for my safe and a rack of motorcycle stuff, hiden behind the flag.

I have a better shop than I am a leather worker, so I have room to grow, so to speak. I also have room to bring out the reloading equipment. The antler in the foreground is being shipped to Ned Buckshot for a handle on the knife he is making me.

Will Dalton and JD, you both have nice work areas, and have made nice improvements, there is nothing nicer than having a well organized work bench, where you know where everything is, and easy access to all of it, Well done pards.

I never posted my improvements to my shop, so I guess this is as good a time as any, I made a new reloading bench to free up my leather bench which shared my reloading press, I added a shelve to my leather bench which has proved real handy for storing supplies, and having a reloading only bench is really working for me. Here are some pictures of my shop.

Very nice man cave 10W!!
I have my reloading room out in the shop, while my leather bench is in the house in a spare bedroom/office. I do wish it was together tho in the same area, as much of it migrates back and forth.
