With so many actual house projects that need to be done (post on this coming soon) I did what many people would do, started something else. I have a workshop that is nearly 1200 square feet and has fallen into disrepair.
This doesn’t happen overnight it’s a few years of neglect. Move enough stuff around to do a project then forget about it for two months, rinse and repeat. So I’ll be throwing out what is trash (the majority of it). Rearranging some of the tables, tools and storage. Fixing some of the exterior problems. I began with the low hanging fruit which means the stuff on the floor. An artificial Christmas Tree, a broken drafting table, two bent bike frames were the largest items. A dumpster would be very helpful but without one I’ll make our roll out garbage can work, and work hard. I plan on putting my hands on everything I have, in the cabinets, boxes, tools, everything. If it doesn’t work, it goes. If I don’t need it, it goes. If I haven’t needed it in the last two years it’s gone. ENOUGH ALREADY. Life is too short to be cluttered with all the crap we accumulate.
next time: Changing the Layout.
