    Default my workshop changes

    Hoping to improve on this situation.



    and progress so far.



    After moaning about the 50 days of rain, it has switched to cold conditions, its bloody cold in the workshop this morning and I haven't finished the set up yet.

    Got this far.



    Looking forward to having around 50 square feet of surface storage on walls and cupboard side.

    Certainly on the right track Jow, it needed a bit of attention, best you show us the finished product when you are done.

    Thumbs up

    Overhead space and walls are a great boon when organizing. Good to see you making use of them.

    I filled up the shelves yesterday afternoon, and dreamt all night how to create some more storage that is still required.

    I'm working on it.

    Got a coal shed that is no longer in use (now gas these days) so intend getting the gardening tools and barbecue stuff etc. into there. Then got an overgrown shrub that is begging for a shed to go in its place for lathe. Will dream some more tonight.

    I think we are all in that situation at one time or other. Just seems to me that my one time is a long time.

    What bait is he using?

    woody,
    I feel your pain mate - both the lack of space and the cold! It's -6c and snowing here which makes it very hard to open my garage door and start bringing stuff (no carp that I know of) back into the garage from my storage container and stacking it all on my new shelves. I dread tomorrow morning when I know I'm going to have to get out there in it and fire up the snow blower after I clear off the car for the missus.
