I converted a utility closet in the basement into my work shop.  It's a bit of a dungeon but its all mine.

I use a roll top desk now. Now you see it and now you don't. Someday I will convert my third bedroom which is just a catch all into a proper hobby room.

As only the £1million pound houses in the UK have basements we have to use our outside space, so my wife and I have built a kit log cabin in the back garden. It has electrics,bench, shelving, display cabinets and spray booth(costing £40).

That's six years ago when we built it.

This is now abouts, shelving, kits, spray booth and a metal Tintin sign on the wall!

You've got a pretty sweet set-up there, Pat!  -"Lovely Jubbely!" -Derrik ' Dellboy' Trotter

That's a very nice hobby room,  Patrick.    Is that a kitchen exhaust fan on the spray booth?  What kind of paint do you shoot?

Yes the top of the spray booth is a kitchen extractor unit bought from a DIY Superstore (small spray booths here are usually starting at £150) with the hose that I drop out the door when using either acrylic or enamel rattle cans.

Yes Dann we looked at building an extension on the back of the garage, the same size again and we put out four tenders and all came back around £40,000! We had some trees cut down, a fence and deck put up and bought and built the cabin and had the electrics put in for under £4,000! It has full floor and roof insulation and the walls are 2" thick, and I have a small oil filled radiator in there, so it's cozy this time of year!

An old thread, but I'm pretty proud of my workspace.  It used to belong to Ronald McDonald, I believe:

I believe that I did my work on a tray back-in-the-day, and it worked too.
