Hi everyone,

My situation is that I have inherited some woodworking tools, and would like to be able to use them.
My first step is to set myself a workshop, probably a metal shed in the garden.

I did make a table in CSE woodwork, but that was some time ago and all using hand tools!
Hopefully this forum will provide some helpful pointers.

If you build a cheap metal shed you'll end up with condensation. Much better a wooden shed / summerhouse/ log cabin.

Put your money into the largest possible shed. Heat it in the winter. As the years go by it will fill up and you will congratulate yourself on a wise decision however painful it was financially.
