Hi Roger, 

I don't have much experience yet but I live in a small 1 
bedroom apartment, store my portable 39" x 20" bench:

in the walk-in closet, and do my woodworking in the kitchen. 
So I'm not sure what I'd do with so much space as a 10x14 
workshop! However, I might do something like this to start:

With a decent sized bench it would seem that there 
would be adequate space to work.

Subject: [OldTools] intro & shop question 

My name Roger and I have a problem...:) 

I was on this list a few years ago, a few being 15 or so IIRC. Being 
no longer single the need for alone time and making things has 
resurfaced, things other than software anyway. I want to break out 
my meager collection of tools vintage #5, #7, #4 with a crack in it's 
sole and start making furniture again. Oh, and coming up with a 
justification to go way beyond my means and buy a Holtey A6, gotta 
have an infill. Dreaming is good. 

My problem is I don't have a shop. It looks like a multipurpose shop 
in the backyard, a shed, will be it. It will need a workbench, a 
lathe, a drlll press (for metal only) and a desk. Does this sound 
like too much to put in a 10x14 shed? Any advice on small work area 
is appreciated. 

I'm in Tallahassee Florida. I'm considering AC for my shop but I'm 
concerned the swings in humidity will make life difficult. 

Thanks all 

Roger
