My Journey from Garden Shed to Workshop

In this Workshop Chat I travel back in time as I take you through the process I took to convert my Garden Shed into a workshop and filming studio. It may not be perfect but it's mine!
Hope you enjoy!!

    Your lighting is terrific, and I love the look of all of your old hand-tools. A very handsome shop. Sharing space with garden supplies, storage items, etc... is something that I'm always dealing with in my garage. Bicycles are the worst. My wife just can't part with our adult children's bikes for some reason. They don't even want them, cause they have cars! :-) I would really enjoy watching you create some boxes with different joinery. Little boxes, or large, it doesn't matter. Take care.

    Beautiful shop. Thank you for sharing and welcoming us inside. Love all the shelves on walls. Doubled sheet bench is great. Side benches like that are great. Make a bit of a mess without worry there like when sharpening.

    Great video. I hope to have my own shop someday. Right now, I just have a small part of our two car garage to work in. We live in the deep south of the USA, so I would also love to have some air conditioning someday. Thanks for sharing your shop journey.

    In the near future I will be releasing a video of my new home workshop and workbench. I don't yet know if you will see it on Carreg/PeteLewisWoodwork/LoungeWizard channel - one of those. It will deal with the challenge of how to make a home workshop in tough circumstances - not unlike what you are doing here. I have bought a new camera and tripod to make the video. I'm looking at this and seeing what others are dealing with to make a dream become a reality. We also have to deal with different weather around the world. I like your background lighting - James Wright does a similar thing on his Wood By Wright channel. As for electric power, I have very recently given away most of my corded power tools and now only have my cordless and hand tools. The only corded power tool I have kept is my bench drill press. All in all, an excellent video and one that I will look at again and again while setting up my own space.
