read "ordered" as , "and YOU will make a new coffee table... :shock: :wink:

That's not a problem then Neil, it's when it gets to "and YOU WILL make that D@#* coffee table" that you should seriously consider the options. :lol:

Don't have a lot of time for my own work although I do make the odd jig now and then as the need arises. Got to admit I could do with a few more jigs and cupboard space but it is when I eventually get the time to do these non paying jobs.

Chas.
I've gone for more than 50%.
I do seem to spend a lot of time getting set up and then packing/tidying away.
Wouldn't it be great to leave all the machines etc out and set up ready to go :roll:

hi am trying to set up the perfect shop for me at the moment having just moved to a new house [20x12 shed in garden clinched the deal]( sorry to gloat) so 100% setup at the moment frustrating but ultimaley worth it

I voted in the Hobby, more than 50%

The reality for me is probably 80% there always seems to be 'other' things that need doing.

For example today, instead of doing some veneering (Which I quite like doing) I was in fact repairing the lawn mower, (Which I don't like doing)modifying the temp. control on the central heating boiler, and refurbishing some old mouse traps.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

At the moment because my workshop doubles as the garage, I seem to spend more time moving equipment around and cleaning up and putting away than cutting. But when my workshop is finished ..........?

Sounds like luxury to me - I only get a few evening hours and weekends avialbale for shed work. On the weekend, I am only allowed to if I take my son (aged 4) with me. It can take about 1/2 hour to put a drill into a chuck (that's after I find it)! Every time I look for the chuck key, I find that the little blighter is using it for one of his games......and where is my good screwdriver and what about my dovetail saw!!!

I vote for more than 100%
