Is your Hobby Shop located in your home?

My woodshop is going to be in Kansas, but I live in Saudi Arabia. I'm setting up an R&D center for my ideas, and my brother's spare time. I've got a woodshop here that I use, but I'm really excited about having my own - even though it'll be 7,500 miles away.

Mine is in my garage. I have one of those funky garages that has a little storage addition on the side. It is 11'6" x 10'6". It is all concrete block. I studded it out and turned it into a rather nice heated shop for woodturning. Then my machining bug hit me from years ago, so then I had to get a few metal working machines, and well, now I have a pretty packed shop. I have 2 wood lathes, wood bandsaw, metal bandsaw, Sieg SX3 CNC Mill, HF 8 x 12 lathe (manual so far), 8' workbench a few mobile table stands, dust collector, and shelves all around the ceiling.

I'm a little packed, but it's a very workable space and I have managed to pack 5 people in there all turning on wood lathes at the same time (woodturners get together) and we were comfortable. I did have to move a few machines out to the main garage tho for that one.

"My" home shop is one that's not truly mine, but my Dad's, and it's at his house about 7.5 miles form me. I was the one who put the machines in as gifts to him, and nearly all of the tooling. He's a retired toolmaker/moldmaker who just tinkers from time to time, and (sadly) I know that one day in the future it's going to be "all mine." He's 77, I'm 50. I try not to think about that though, because for now we're having a lot of fun with it.

well mine is mostly in the a attached garage but my compressors and bead blasting cabinet is on the back porch and I use the kitchen stove to bake my powder coating parts ....... maybe one day I'll get a large shed but that's a nightmare trying to get the permit form the city
