I was looking through a workshop edition of Wood magazine the other day, studying the layouts of a dozen and a half shops of all shapes and sizes when I realized that people kept referring to there shops as small. 440sqft, 600sqft, all "small shops." I laughed at the idea. Is that really a small shop? It sounds huge to me! My shop is 75sqft and at times has been smaller and  

Over the years my workshop has evolved and de-devolved and evolved again. When I was in high school living with my folks, I had my dads workshop at my disposal. Nothing too fancy, 200sqft, just right for most work that we wanted to do. Then in College I set up shop in my apartment. No power tools, 1, 6 foot workbench and pegboard everywhere. Then I moved and moved again and again and again and tools started getting lost or sold. For a short while my shop was set up in a 10x12 wall tent in the back yard. Then the kitchen table. A roll out table in the closet. Before long all my woodworking tools fit into one box. By the time I built my first CBG I was working out of a cardboard box of tools on the living room floor (only when the wife was gone). That was a year ago, almost to the day. Now I'm in the garden shed out back cranking out CBG's and furniture and whatever I want. So as all this ran through my head and I laughed about these 450sqft "small shops" I began to wonder, where do other people work. What is your shop? Are you working on the kitchen table or living room floor? Or do you have some huge shop out back? Where is it that you create your CBG's?
