Hi Folks,

A topic that came up to me after Roys Shop Tour Video.

We all know that, in work progress, it sometimes get a big mess. But my Shop is my Place to calm down and also where my customers take Part of the Workshops.

So it became naturally to clean up every evening. And with a clean workspace it is so much more fun to just sit in the Shop enjoy the Beauty of it.

Here a quick view of my Place:

Newest Addition is the old 450 Amp ACDC Tig Machine which also can do plasmawelding.

How do your „Mancaves“ look like and what projects do you work on there?

Kind regards
Christian

Thanks for sharing your workspace - looks like a great shop. Always nice to see different workspaces.

Here is my basic set up. I'm just a hobbyist, so nothing fancy.

My welding bench is a lightweight affair (3/16 thick top) from Weldtables.com. I really like it, but I screwed up when I put it together and it is WAY out of flat. I'm going to try applying heat to it and see if I can flatten it. If not, I'll live with it and get a piece of aluminum tool plate for critical projects.

It's a pity there isn't more general discussion in this forum, I thought this was a great idea for a thread.

Here's my current project - a rack system for my wife. Sure, I could buy something cheaper from Ikea or wherever, but where is the fun in that?

This project is kicking my backside though - TIG welding aluminium is really difficult, but I have made some good progress. Unfortunately some of my welds looked so terrible I resorted to grinding them off for appearance sake.

My welds are improving though. Slowly but surely.
