L:ast Time I posted a picture of me doing anything in it I got a flood of replies saying that it could do with a sweep up and a new floor. Well since then it's only got worse. I only have a wooden framed asbestos garage with concrete floor which is cracking and erupting so I had to put down plywood and carpet to stop losing nuts and bolts down the cracks and now the frame as has got wood worm.
This post is worthless without PICTURES

read what I posted I said I am not posting pictures. You comment is therefore also worthless.

Everybody uses angle grinders, and wire brushes, to get rust off of old parts, all the time. Everything gets covered with dust over time, so I have to have tarps over the bikes.

Bike is one of our “hangaround’s”. We also have a common space in the middle, big enough for two cars. The hangarounds pay £ 10/month, and they can work there, with whatever they have, and use our equipment.

On the anvil: a blacksmith also needs a…a…sorry, don’t know what it’s called in English.
I built this myself. “Bowl” is an old brake drum from some old Volvo military truck. Fan is from a scrapped microwave oven. It works really well.
