What are your workshop rules?

Mine are simple. Don’t borrow it. Don’t touch it. Don’t even look at it! Chris Ryder

I find the problem starts with definition of workshop and of ‘shed’. I think that a workshop should be literally where a person works, whereas a shed is a place to store items. Unfortunately, my workshop is also my shed and most of the time there is no space to work, not even floor space! John Butler

One day you’ll need that useful off-cut of timber, and maybe the half-used pot of 1968 paint. Huw Williams

And when you eventually throw something out, you’ll find a use for it within weeks! John Roberts

Don’t put anything away, as you will need it almost immediately. And keep plenty of towels around, when using Stanley knives. Plus A&E on speed dial. Steve Allen

This post inspired me to sort out my garage. After an hour I was no further forward – just shuffling stuff about. I think it’s time for a beer! Terry Gillott

I try to not lie to myself. My ’shop is a wreck and I can’t find anything. Bruce Boschek

1. Don’t spit on my shop floor.

2. Put the tool back where you found it, not where YOU think it belongs. John Dillingham
