My work area is a 53 foot retired Pepsi trailer. My power source is either a generator, or I take the tools to the back yard and work off the deck. (Trailer is to far away for extension cords) works for me right now and allows ne to make a mess and build.

For years I worked in my garage until I retired and start buying wood working equipment and got tired of moving it around to get the car in, even though I had most of it on casters. I bought an old house 1 block from my house and converted part of it into a workshop which is 20 x 20. I then added a garage with a 12' high ceiling that is 24 x 26. Then the remainder of the house turned out have a bad foundation, so I tore it down and you can see all my projects going into what I call my "man…

The garage single or even better 24 x 24 is a nice size, my basement shop is 40 ft long x 11 1/2 ft wide with access to 16 x 20 on other side of shop if needed.<br />
I still need half that gain my ceiling height is only 6 ft 10 inches high a downfall<br />
