Workshop Conversion:

Being into electronics, building a workshop had to be the first project in the new house. As we had a drive for storing the cars off the road, converting it was an easy decision.

Initially, my plans were very simple and the result was intended to be quite utilitarian, while providing me with the opportunity to refresh my DIY and constructional skills before attacking the house. However, as time passed my skills and confidence improved, and the workshop has continuously evolved. This is why some aspects of construction might seem a bit strange...

Workshop Build:

• Planning - deciding how to use the space
• Phase 1 - the initial work to form the basic space
• Phase 2 - subsequent work to make improve the workshop
• Front Area - the space left at the front of the garage.

Workshop Tours:

These started as an experiment in HTML and image maps, but have proved to be quite popular...

• September 2000 - showing the garage after Phase 1.
• July 2004 - a new tour made while we sell our house.
