The G Cave

[BradG]

Taken while getting the shop ready for the weekend. its been a busy weekend, with a handful of failures and a load of successes so all in all some great shop time.

Time for a bigger workshop, i need twice the space just to accomodate the plating tanks. As it stands ive converted the second bathroom into a chemistry lab setup with an anodising line, chrome and gold plating line, and electroforming line, etching tanks for brass and for aluminium. the room conveniently came with a shower cubicle for rinising parts, sink, and extractor fan too for fume extraction. I suspect a house move in 2013.... to a house with a double garage... but of course that would be completely coincidental that the final house we pick has a double garage.. honest love.

Where is Igor, I suspect you have a pen connected to electrodes somewhere there in the background just waiting for the next electrical storm.

Don't hold back if you move. You need at least a 4-car garage. :biggrin:

It seems to me you have a lot of unused space in that picture. My shop has walking room only and some places you have to turn sideways or lose weight to get through. :biggrin::biggrin:

And you'll need room for the new lathe...and mill that will eventually be necessary because the lathe got bigger.

Don't forget a spray booth! :biggrin: I think it's outstanding that you've branched into the bathroom. Excellent idea.

Good thought Dale but with a shower curtain he has a built in spray booth for small parts in his bathroom. As I think about it the bathroom is the perfect work shop. You can take care of all your daily projects and business.:biggrin::biggrin:

Ive started designing a little one with an extraction filter on it so i can use my airbrush without coating verything else in a fine dust lol.
