When I designed it, I intended it could be used as a creative studio. Painting, woodworking, photography. I built the windows to the north to have good lighting without sun. When we sell the house at some point of time, I think it’s better to have a more flexible space.
My workbench has finally moved into my new workshop today! I still have some plinths to finish and the outside decking (that’s for spring time). build some storage and move in the bandsaw. All that will be for next year though, no more weekends available this year for woodworking. Once my workshop looks used I will send some more pictures.

I found out that especially in the beginning OSB emits formaldehyde vapours, and besides not being healthy I have a formaldehide allergy. So putting in white waxed real wood :-).
Plan is to finish that in August, and have the electricity connected. Will white wax the floor as well. Then some more painting outside, final roofing, and a small deck in front and I’m done. Hopefully end of September…

You must be logged in to view attached files.It has taken a while for more updates, but I have made good progress. Roof is on, panels and window installed. I’m now putting in the floor and first part of electricity should be installed this week.
Then I can put in the insulation and finish the interior walls. I’m considering just to put OSB (I have some left overs) on the walls and ceiling. Any recommendations though?

After some research I’m now also ready to place an order for a new bandsaw, and want to go for the record power BS400. Is there any specific reason you would go for a startrite now instead of the bs400? (I’m living in Sweden so have to buy those machines new, used market is not great here).
Ik kan je echt aanraden om de werkbank te maken, ik heb een post waar ik een beetje vertel over het maken van de werkbank. Een andere met foto’s over een nieuwe strandcabine die gebouwd heb. Nu ben ik van job veranderd, en heb niet veel tijd gehad voor houtbewerking, heb echter net wat hout gekocht om mijn boxmaking skills te oefenen. Veel plezier met de restauratie van de Stanley 45.
