Do that in my garage and you'll a foot full of glass shards embedded in it :yikes: Its's what you get from makiing stained glass windows, doing woodwork, metal work and other jobs in the one place.
And I'm not showing my place off as it would take me too long to clean up half decent
I lack a garage up here in Glasgow so I have to make do.
complete with a few recent projects -the knife in the bottle of oil is due to come out and get a wipe down soon.
what you don't see is the argos axe lying on the floor or my "tool draw"

HA HA HA - that made me laugh that did!!
the tippex is actually for my geology maps (dissertation stuff) - mistakes happen when inking in etc. - you can actually see the mapping folder to the right of my car keys. - the tv is linked up to my computer too so I can have all sorts going on at once! - bet none of you lot have an entertainment system and internet in your workshop
They have a "get out of jail free" clause, they put it all on the property's inventory and if it's not there when you leave it comes out of your deposit.

i thought you were going to say you dried out green wood in it "clang clang bang clang" hahahaha
i have a microwave for that reason,...its black as,...on the inside,..the other day i popped my cold bacon sarni in it,...i,m certain it was,nt smoked bacon when it went in,...
ok, your forgiven the lady tool seeing as tho you gave 3 good reasons for it being there,.. ;-)
It's a bit on the big side, I built it myself, (Still am, and the house to go with it) and it did try to kill me once, but I have great plans for it. 3 car garage at the front, workshop behind, and office, den, and store upstairs.

swit swoooooo!!
a W.C and a hammock and i dont think i can see a reason to ever go into the house.
in fact, are you sure you did,nt mix up the pic of the house ??
The thought has crossed my mind on more than one occasion.
In fact, there are already bolts in situ for the hammock, and there may, or may not be a drain installed for a cludgy, should the need arise.
The house is here :-
Almost all DIY. I have made a habit of not listening to people who say that I won't be able to do something.

mate !! that is very very nice
you have obviously worked very hard and by the looks of it its paid off,..
i must say i dont like to hand money over to tradesmen, but sometimes my bodging just doesnt cut it,....but this must be the best DIY project i ever saw,...
plus its in a cracking part of the world too,...i get up to Aberdeen on business once twice a month, i normally chuck the bivi up on the camp site in Stonehaven.
It's 6 months or so from being finished I reckon.
Garage was built first. Got to have ones priorities right.
I promptly fell off it, and smashed both wrists. Not a high point of the build, I can tell you.

The sawdust is on the kitchen floor when I go into the house and my slipper have brass swarf in them tonight
I will show some shots of the place tonorrow when I am home.
Cannot get into my shed for mountain bikes and kids toys at the moment so any workshop type stuff gets done in the Kitchen when the wife is not in. Usually no problems unless I get caught half way through my projects. Like the other day when she came home and found 3 bikes in the kitchen in various states of dismantlement with the sink full of bits getting degreased!! Hopefully when our old house sells we will be buildig some sort of extension on this one which will free up some bloke space in my shed!
This how my garage did look before I rearranged it at least now I dont bang my head on the chain rings anymore
Workshop 2 by alfred.branch, on Flickr
The carpet is to stop me getting cold when stood/sat at my workbench in winter and its only a couple of square yards but it does the job.
