I envy you guys with large shops. Since my divorce I work on a patio and have to roll out my tools each time I go to work. My workbench is a 2x12 I lay over two folding work benches. I also have an old door I lay over the folding benches for large projects. I do like working outdoors as dust is not much of an issue.

Here's my vise setup in the basement. It's mounted on a steel post that is lagged to the floor. I like to work standing up and able to work on a stave from either side.

If the weather's nice, I much prefer to work outside in good sunlight. My outdoor setup has a tillering tree bolted to it. I keep the whole thing outside year round, except the scales, which I bring inside. I just have to give the vise a good soaking of WD-40 once in a while.

And a few more. The last is my special spot. When I can keep others out of it.

Nice Outfits Y'all.

I like Druid's and Pappy's setup the best so far...
But then I'm a Jeremiah Johnson kinda guy at heart...

prefer working outside whens weather allows(which is most of the time-cold and heat dont bother me much)

the bench is in the yard- my little urban "wilderness cabin" lost in a wooded area right in the heart of the city

Here's one of my main work-areas in the workshop.

Sadiejane, I like your urban wilderness cabin. I bet it is a nice little escape from city life.
