Thanks JUJU, I've got chipmunks under foot and chickadees all over me. I hang a suit  ball on a stick over my right shoulder. The young hairy woodpeckers are begging for food from Mom on the ball. I get a lot of fun from these clowns. They don't like the sander. Band saws alright...

yeah Dave it's great to get outdoors and work - hear the birds sing while you work - great stuff :)

Every man needs a shed, basement, garage or treehouse to get away to. Solitary confinement is a necessity. I've got my corner of the RV about 6 foot from where i'm sitting in this photo. Command central so to speak. My coffee cup, small hand tools, radio. I'm set...

I would just like to use the Gararge as well a garage lol. And gives me a chance to get organised better.

With 3 kids I always have somthing to fix and it will also be a good place to hide when a bit of peace and quiet is needed ;-)

I love working outside when i can. I'm near my garden too. I don't like hauling out the tools, but having a big inside shop is just not in the cards. I'm slowing down as i get older. I don't want a big business anymore. Simple is more appealing to me than production. Not to cast criticism on those who are energetic and full of big dreams. Youth has its own drummer. I just like a simple little life and good music, good food and naps...

thats my kinda shop

Comment by South Paw,Davey on June 16, 2012 at 3:05am

Nice summer shop. I am having a massive clear out so I can expand my shop from the garage to the big shed.

Been using it for storage and junk as I have renovated the house.

Been filling a container most of the day cold beer and guitar time now;-)

Old hippie for sure. The bench is a Minnesota Renaissance Fest throwaway that i fixed. I was the Gnome Wizard at the festival for 7 years. Thanks Uncle John...
