Starting off with a clean slate - knowing what you know - knowing what you always wanted -
not that money isn't a consideration - but what if you had that 10 million -
What's that work shop (AKA - The Man Cave) going to be?
I'm pretty lucky - I have a good sized lot and room for a work shed that I built 11 years ago - man that time went by quickly..
I have room for my tools but I use the patio to stage and work on my bike. The concrete surface makes life with jacks and jack stands very stable - my shed has a raised wooden floor.
If I had to do it all over again... I'd have built forms and slabbed out my shed floor then I could do my work in there.
So - my next work shop is going to have a sloped smooth concrete floor with a drain, I'm going to make it a few feet bigger in each direction including up. I built this one with 8 foot stock - next one I'd make 10 feet and add a high shelf for light stuff and seasonal.
Storage is important - I keep my tool boxes on dollies. They roll under the work bench and are out of the way and withing reach - got lucky with that one.
Plenty of plugs.
Plenty of lights.
Great sound system.
small frig in the corner with cold beer.
A dart board...
