Heres the interior of the 6x5 shed I call home.

Silverwork is done on the my lap, at a littel lounge located table, or on a bench peg clamped to the kitchen worktop, (can get a bit heated in more ways than one in the kitchen when Mrs Green Monster is cooking!)

Not unlike my own shed, Mr Monster. And I see a lot of accounting going on in the Green Corner

Hmm, that's an interesting sewing machine... And very heavy-duty thread for fabrics.

I loathe book keeping! Do anything to avoid it, amazing the excuses that can be found!

Peter, yes used for sewing through upto 4 layers of vinyl coated fabric, it's a walking foot machine, been very useful and more than earned it's keep over the years. It gets used for about 4 days in a month on a small contract that will never get any bigger. If I could use it for 15 days a month I would give up my main business.

Thought it looked like one. I still fancy one for leatherwork, but that's just being lazy - I can hand sew the heavyweight stuff relatively quickly when I'm on a roll.

And is that a grinding machine I spy?

Where are you spying?
if you are looking at the thing in the cardboard box on the left then it is a circular saw....used for another niche business! I seem adept at finding little openings that will never get any bigger due to the market size, a shame as they have ondeful markup!

The flat lap gets used for stone grinding with a very coarse disc, after the stones are trimmed off as much as possible.
