After a long period of searching I’ve been able to find a space to rent.
It’s a bit big (170m2 or about 1830 square feet) for my needs but it will do more than fine. The price was logical and I team up with a friend woodworker to share the space and rent.
We will be moving in May 2012 and there is so much work to be done here. Don’t have a clue how long it will take to make as I have planed it, but I believe it will keep me busy for a long time.
Here are some photos and the workshop plan top view layout.

Steliart,
Always nice to start with a blank canvas and more room (if that’s posible) than you need.
Work Safe and have fun setting up your new shop. – Len

It is good to get a new workshop. 500 sq ft will fill up quickly and become smaller.

Some calculation error,
170m² is 1830 sq ft and the pic’s shows that this is the true value.
500 sq ft is only 46m²

Your new place looks great, I am glad you found a fellow wood worker. Your determination & love of wood working shows your love for it. (always a good thing) Happy Drilling, cutting, routing. Shows of your character. Which appears to be one of a very good man.
( No fancy motto)
Have your say...
