A really small workshop - Ohio Mike - 06-26-2016
He calls his tiny shop a "shack" and I'm guessing it's about 6' x 6'. His hobby is carving tampers for pipe smokers.
I find it inspirational that he's found a way to pursue woodworking with a minimum of space and tools.
This video is from Germany but the guy speaks English quite well.

My Grandpa smoked a pipe- loved that smell.

Small shops can be quite interesting for sure, at Dover Ohio at the Warther Museum the original workshop is on display all original and I still find it intriguing and interesting the amazing work Ernest Moody made there . The small shops present quite well the talent of the craftsman.

And I thought my 14x16 shop was small, however, I have all the power tools the VA bought me.

I love pipes, my Grandfather smoked a pipe, I did as well. I quit smoking in 1986 but still have my pipe collection and my Grandfathers smoking / pipe rack. When I was in College I spent a lot of time at Ian Ries ( sp ) in Chicago, they had a great selection of tobbaco's and pipes. Not sure if they are still in business or not this was in the late 60's and early 70's.
