My workshop

It became obvious that my small 4 x 8  cupboard was becoming almost impossible to work in for space and the lighting was pretty drab.
 I needed to get more space. Working on the kitchen table was not an option as its pretty annoying for everyone in my house having to share breakfast with soldering irons and perfboard (not something that bothers me).
I considered buying a bigger shed, maybe 10 x 8 but and putting all my electronic and tools in but security worried me so I decided to take a deep breath and clear out the garage.
After about three weeks and seven trips to the local tip, I had enough of a room that I could turn into a decent workshop.
I added extra lighting at the bottom end of the garage which made the whole length of the garage a useable space. To further enhance the lighting I painted most of the visible walls white to reflect more light.

 



A concern with any concrete garage floor was the amount of dust the surface throws up. I went to Screwfix and bought a tin of garage floor paint.  This stuff is brilliant. It sealed the surface and has completely stopped any concrete dust. I put two coats down, a third coat is supposed to make it glass smooth but that isn't  a look or surface I'm after as being a health and safety disaster on two legs I would probably end up on my butt more than on my feet.
Here's a video tour of my workshop



I must admit after using the space for a couple of weeks its made me much more productive and with the addition of a heater has meant I can work in there till well into the night.
