So we’ve got a thread for pictures of gear, tiny studios, and even studio furniture, but even though we have loads of people on here doing DIY stuff, there doesn’t appear to be a thread for sharing your (DIY) spaces/workshops.
So this is that thread.

Even though I’ve been doing DIY shit for a big part of my life, I’ve never had a dedicated space for it. I would always pull out my iron, tools from a box, and set up an adhoc space somewhere to do what I needed, and then put everything back. In a couple of places I’ve lived I could leave the iron out and stuff, but the space would be kind of ‘mixed use’, so I couldn’t do that in perpetuity.
Well, after some house restructuring I now have a dedicated DIY room/space!
I’m still setting things up, so nothing is powered/wired yet, but it’s starting to take shape.
The room isn’t huge, but it’s enough space to have more-or-less dedicated areas to different tasks:
Actually found this the other day (the silk screened box from the first monome I ever bought (used)). The original owner was nice enough to keep it and send it along when I bought it:
(along with a mix of functional and “decorative” posters)
And the view from the other side, with the 3d printer, storage shelves, and rack for “in progress” projects (that’s the current plan for it anyways):
