ok its not particularly a welding shop but it doesn't stop me.

i own a small business that is now back in Congleton, Cheshire (UK) after a year of turmoil and trouble. 2013 will bring bigger and better things

before i started to turn it into a working environment

Looks good! High ceilings with lighting that's not in the way is always a plus for me in any shop space.

Hey,

Be sure to make good friends with the laser cutters. Help them with tooling etc, and maybe they will help you back...

@ other Steve,
yes i need good lighting, for both intricate engine building and bodywork, when i eventually can afford a lift i want a scissor lift so i have no posts round the car.

@ Mike, Already in there with them mate, they made me a intake runner blanking plate its so i can leave plenum off while servicing and nothing can drop into the intake undetected.

i might get them to make me something of some use one day lol.

@ Jeff, Cheers mate, its high time i got a decent place :)

oh if my welding is reflected on my eyes then i'm buggered! i put the sign up today, heavy sign, i think its 1.2mm steel at 6'x3'. and crooked! :( lol

Hey,

Awesome, laser cutting can be real handy for little fiddly bits or mass produced items.
